Colls cup tie postponed


By Matt Lawton
December 10 2008

Leigh Genesis have found themselves once again beaten by the weather as their hopes of finally playing their Lancashire FA Trophy First Round tie with neighbours Atherton Collieries were dashed once again after the Stainton Park pitch failed an inspection.

Although the state of the pitch this morning was looking promising, the temperature has plummeted since then and as such the pitch failed an inspection this afternoon, the seventh time that this fixture has had to be postponed.

The two sides will now try to play the game at Atherton's Alder House home tomorrow (Thursday), with a date to be confirmed next week should the weather again come out on top.
