We can only apologise to supporters who have made another wasted journey."

Dover is off
Just been called off by ref as he arrived at the ground. Confirmed on Notts tw@tter. Ridiculously late postponement once again. Feel for our fans that travelled.

Unbelievable... except in this badly-run league it isn't!
If the pitch is 'totally unplayable' then it is highly unlikely to have deteriorated to that state in the space of the last two hours.
Whether it's down to Dover not forewarning the officials, or lazy officials not being bothered to get down there and conduct an earlier inspection, it shows a complete disregard for travelling fans making such a long journey. King's Lynn was bad enough, but this is scandalous.
A shameful reflection on the National League.

Disgraceful. The sooner we get out of this Mickey Mouse league the better!

Not sure whether to blame the league or the actual clubs involved. Not sure what the league can do when the club itself doesn’t have the good sense to inspect the pitch more than a couple of hours before kick off. Originally Posted by jackal2
