Chasetown FC Latest News

Good morning Chasetown fans.

("Good morning Mr Pilgrim. Good morning every one")

...And a big hello to all you lurkers out there!

First business of the day. What's the pitch looking like? There will be an inspection this morning. Not sure what time, but I am trying to get some info on how it's looking right now.

Other matters:

Ingy, get the fire lit.

Scholar1985, give me your most obscure and Christmassy related stats on Market Drayton.

Market Drayton, it's traditional at the pre Christmas weekend game for the opposition to loose heavily to us, so if you would oblige! (Leave it, Paul. They won't know )

You want obscure? Well, we've played them once before - and TWO current Chasetown players scored in that game.

Duncan Horler's free-kick was expertly struck off Dave Egan in the wall

Now, I didn't see that game. If the boys could kindly recreate it for me this afternoon (a la Baddiel and Skinner), that would be very nice

Well, Egan's touch to deflect it past Ryan Price was certainly stronger than Birchy's touch for the 4th goal on Tuesday lol

Err... ahem. *shuffles feet and stares at ground* Could we maybe forget my previous idea ...at all?

But is it frozen ground you are staring at?

No idea. Nobody's got back to me. I assume the pitch inspection will take place in the next hour or so.

just had a call from people at the club
match is OFF

Bah

For the benefit of officialdom,

The game has NOT been called OFF (yet)

The inspection is not until 11 a.m.
