Mossley game postponed
By Matt Lawton
February 8 2011
Tuesday evening’s Evo-Stik League First Division North fixture between Leigh Genesis and Mossley was unfortunately forced to be postponed at the last minute due to the match officials being unhappy with one corner of the Crilly Park pitch that suffered badly in the recent heavy rain.
A new fixture date will be confirmed as soon as available.
Leigh Genesis offer their sincerest apologies to all those sadly affected by this evening’s late postponement.

Absolutely and utterly embarrassing, can't say any more than that. Would think/hope the pitch situation is sorted sooner rather than later.

Chester game - touchline moved back to original position and causes a raft of confusion with the foul throws etc
Mossley game - touchline moved inside again at the referee's request but lines too faint/not applicable to other side/still didn't avoid waterlogged area, delete as appropriate

Didn't the LSV claim they had spent £25000 on the pitch last summer to stop this sort of thing happening? They don't appear to have done a good job
