The grounds man at St Mary's School Upper Newbold hade no alternative but to declare the ground unfit after a heavy downpour of rain followed by frost had deemed the pitch unplayable.

 

Players are now asked to meet at Ashfield School at 12.15 pm ready for a 1.30 kick off.

 

Stewart Rowley Director Stewart Rowley was disappointed that the game had to move into Nottinghamshire " Obviously we would have preferred to play our game in Chesterfield but we have to respect the decision of the School who have to consider  the damage and  long term implications of playing a match in the present conditions having said that we are very grateful to Ashfield School and our partnership with F.C Interski who have again offered us their excellent facility at such short notice , The games will provide our toughest test yet as Cambridge have an extremely well organised talented squad but our players continue to make admirable progress and I am sure will up to the challenge"
