Considering the shedloads of rain we've had in the past 24 hours, with more planned, there is a strong chance St James Park will be unplayable on the weekend. There are a couple of scenarios here.
If the game can't go ahead, either because of the state of our ground or a wider council closure of grounds, we will need to play a Sunday makeup game within the the next fortnight. At this stage we would lean towards May 31 but if you have an issue with that date or June 7 could you visit your respective team's When I'm Away section asap and mark it in there. That way if one or both teams are struggling for numbers on one of the Sundays we can play on the more suitable date.
The third scenario is that the other grounds are open but Coledale is unplayable. The IAFA is looking into a contingency for us. That would be us playing our game at Corrimal at 1pm this Saturday to avoid the need for a double header.
Of course, there is a chance that the sun returns tomorrow, Coledale clears up and we continue as if nothing happened and this post, like many more before it, will go down as a complete waste of time.
