The Rain Wins

Perhaps it was inevitable but we have called off tonight's match at Armadale due to a waterlogged track.

It's rained on and off all week of course and overnight but when the skies cleared and a warm breeze started blowing on Friday morning we briefly thought that there was a chance of the meeting going ahead. However, the clouds rolled in again at ten and with a dreadful forecast for the rest of the day only one decision was possible.

Erik Riss and Max Clegg head off to King's Lynn on Saturday for World Under 21 action and the rest of the team head off to Plymouth to be joined by guests Michael Palm Toft and Luke Chessell.

There is no date yet for restaging the Plymouth match.
