It’s been a miserable few weeks for football fans and players – not to mention groundsmen – and today (Sat Nov 18) followed a depressing trend.

Bognor Regis Town have had a number of games called off lately and their FA Trophy tie with South Park (Reigate) was ruled out because of a waterlogged pitch at Nyewood Lane. They will try again on Wednesday night.

Matches off in the Isthmian premier division incliuded Lancing’s visit to East Grinstead and Broadbridge Heath’s trip to Horndean.
