I had not realised that mock GCSEs were upon many of the boys - this has had a clear knock on to availability for training over the next couple of weeks.
With that in mind and to respond to a request from the boys after Sunday to have a discussion with the coaches, I am suggesting that we meet at 6.45pm with a view to finishing no later than 7.30pm. No need to come in your kit and injured players are welcome. Hopefully that will also enable the boys who are revising to attend and still get some revision in.
I will try to get the Hale Room upstairs or the snug area.
It's also pretty clear that with the current injury situation we will be unable to fulfill 2 league fixtures on 15/12. The League rules dictate that the A team fixture takes precedent - avoiding unscrupulous coaches loading the B side with A team players.... So, I've asked Bob to seek an alternative date for the Old Dunstablian's match (hopefully they will be sportsmanly enough to accept a reschedule) and the Ealing fixture will proceed.
