Game Postponed due to pitch conditions
On a sunny but bitterly cold day Portmouth were due to play Gosport & Fareham today but with last weeks controversial ending to the match against Petersfield, together with the fact that when a pitch inspection took place around midday it was almost impossible to get a fork into the ground it was decided, following a conversation with Gosport’s head coach, regretably to call off the fixture. The 2nds game at Gosport was also called off. Fortunately the Club had arranged a Christmas lunch with around 50 guests and that still took place. Unfortunately 1 table of 10 that had booked, failed to turn up, but a very convivial afternoon was had by all who did attend. Today’s game will probably be played in March. We now have a bit of a Christmas shutdown apart from a interclub game to be held on Boxing Day. Our next League fixture will be away to Jersey on Saturday 7th. January 2023 with the next home game versus Eastleigh on Saturday 14th. January.
Can I wish everyone a very happy Christmas and a great New Year.
Jim Dixon.
