Fulham Football Club are the
top club in the Nationwide league.
Well that's bad news then. The
referee has decided that due to a bit of frost in one corner of the pitch the
game had to be cancelled. It seems that covers were used and then this morning
hot air blowers were also used but to no avail. Shucks!
That means that both Bolton and Blackburn have
the chance to get closer to Fulham until we are able to play our postponed games.
The Fulhamweb prediction
for this match was 3-1 to the Cottagers with a crowd of 16500. But now we will
have to wait a while to find out if that would have been correct.
Meanwhile today we will be following the first division games that escape the
frost and snow.
Say ... We are top of Division One after a
half of the campaign, have lost only one game, have the best goal difference
in British football and have the leading scorer in the Premier and Nationwide
leagues.
