Chester Friendly Cancelled

A news story on http://www.gmfc.net/ has announced that the pre-season friendly against Chester City has been cancelled due to severe storm warnings and the fact that the pitch at the Deva Stadium was already flooded.

There was a pitch inspection planned for tomorrow but the postponement was considered a formality so Chester decided to make the announcement now rather than wait. The match was scheduled to be played on Monday 23rd July.

The news follows the cancellation of Raith Rovers friendly against the same opponents last Saturday.
