CLARIFICATION OF PROCEEDURES

Following numerous enquiries to the League Secretary with regard to cancelled matches.

In ALL cases where a match has been cancelled by one club for circumstances other than weather/pitch condition, ie they cant raise a team, the fixture HAS to be subject to a decision by the League Council at the next appropriate meeting (note a game cancelled on a Saturday will rarely be discussed at a meeting that Monday, as the `offending` team has the right to submit an explanation).

For ease of use, the website will show the match as `postponed`.

Once the LMC has made its decision, the findings will be relayed to the Secretaries of the Clubs concerned and IF the fixture has been awarded, it will always be as a 0-0 win (Leagues are NOT allowed to award goals). Then and only then will the website be updated.
