I remember about 45 years ago, we had a Sunday league game at Wigtoft. It had snowed on and off for the previous two days. We were sure the game would be called off and rang the contact number, but got no reply. We set off in 3 cars and after much difficulty arrived at the pitch.
The place was deserted and with no foot prints or tyre tracks it was obvious that no one had been near the place.
We cursed and made our way back to Boston.
We were fined and Wigtoft awarded the points, because we did not play the fixture.
I know that was at local level and 45 years ago, but who knows what the powers that be will decide.
