Hotscots vs Ballbois Abandoned
In what’s thought to be a GFSN League first, the game between Hotscots and Nottingham Ballbois was abandoned this afternoon after 60 minutes due to the incliment weather.
With the East Midlands side already 3-1 up, the game was brought to an abrupt halt after both sides agreed the weather was simply too severe to continue.
Tony Lynn, of Nottingham Ballbois said 60mph driving winds and torrential rain was the reason for the game being abandoned.
However, he also reiterated that the Ballbois contingent - totalling 32 players and supporters - had enjoyed a weekend in the Scottish Capital despite the premature end to the game.
Any replaying of the fixture will be announced in due course.
The arctic weather across the UK had already caused the postponements of three GFSN fixtures this season.
With the quarter-finals of the GFSN Cup approaching, everyone associated with the league will be hoping for better weather in the next few weeks.
