Just to clear up confusion here as to why we haven't posted anything or added it to our website yet, it seems someone on Fylde's end jumped the gun yesterday and tweeted confirmation of the fixture being moved to Sunday without a joint announcement time between the clubs being agreed, or indeed complete confirmation that the fixture is moving just yet.
Just for clarification,
With new restrictions, I guess the youth can still play on Thursday,
Yes, as tier 3 restrictions start on Friday.
When are we playing Fylde,
Not yet confirmed by AFC Fylde but it seems that the most likely date is Sunday 25th.
When are we playing Hartlepool .
Tuesday October 27th @ 7.45pm.
I assume we can play these games because we are an elite team.
Non-elite teams also have fixtures scheduled & going ahead as well.
Responses in blue above, Bryan.
Actually, looking at the advice which the Cheshire FA sent out today, there are no further restrictions on youth teams, so the youth team can still travel and entertain other clubs in spite of tier 3 status.
In contrast, it looks very awkward for the reserves in the step 7 Cheshire League as their home ground is in tier 2 Cheshire East, while most of the players, presumably, are based in tier 3 Greater Manchester, and players of that level are not supposed to travel out of a tier 3 area.
