Notts Casuals 1sts 18 v 12 Melbourne 1sts |
|
Friday, 04 April 2008 |
|
Melbourne turned up at Long Eaton on Wednesday evening to play this NLD semi final against League leaders Nott`s Casuals. The first problem was the refusal by the referee to allow the game to be played due to excess water on the pitch, after much forking and prodding of the pitch and then the arrival of sand to be put on the pitch we thought we were ready for the game to be confirmed as playable!!
Next problem was the Council official stating that it wasn't council sand and so couldn't be used - pitch and potentially match abandoned! After some frantic phone calls it was finally confirmed that we could use the flood-lit pitch at Derby RFC with a kick off at 21:00!! Well done to the Casuals stalwarts for marking the pitch out at the last minute.
