GAME OFF: Bideford (H)

Writer's picture: Scott FitzgibbonScott Fitzgibbon

Unfortunately as the day has progress the pitch is now freezing in front of our eyes. The ref and both sides are in agreement that the match isn't going to be playable.


The pitch passed a cautionary 3pm inspection and all parties were happy that the match would be playable. Thank you to Bideford for their understanding during these few hours where we've been in regular communication.

Refunds are being issued to everyone within the ground. Online tickets will be refunded or exchanged in due course.


We will be working with Bideford AFC to offer fans that have travelled free entrance to the rearranged fixture.
