Workington ask for help to get game on

14 Mar 2019 By James Gordon

Workington club officials are asking Reds’ supporters to help them get Saturday’s match versus title challengers, South Shields, on.

They are desperate for the Evo-Stik Premier Division fixture to be played following last week’s postponement against North Ferriby United.

Supporters are being asked to turn up at Borough Park on Saturday morning to help remove the pitch covers and, if necessary, fork some areas of the playing surface.

Heavy rain is forecast over the next few days so ground staff have borrowed some covers from Carlisle United in an attempt to keep water off the problem areas. They will be in place for the next thirty six hours.

Volunteers are being asked to turn up at the ground (from 8am) with a garden fork and help the groundsman give this important fixture every chance of going ahead.

Where next?
