Harriers Chatter

First home game and it's under the new lights. If it gets dark enough that is.

Referee is Craig Scriven from Wells, Somerset.

Match report from Dan: https://harriers-online.co.uk/khfc/13-08-22-match-report-vs-leamington-fc/

With temperature forecast to be over 30C, there will be plenty of drinks breaks slotted in…….and one or two for the players as well. Probably won’t need the new lights Phil.

Train strikes might put pay to my attendance...let's see what works out.

If there are no trains running, it would have been an ideal opportunity to re-instate that footbridge, but that would involve forward planning and co-operation between the unions and Network Rail - LOL

Can't make the game now, only two trains back from Birmingham to London after 6pm and need to be back for Sunday.

So I'm selling my ticket in the North Stand. Face value, unless you message me at 7.38pm today, online, using only your left hand with one eye shut, then I'll charge you a £15 surcharge.*





* obviously a joke...I'll get the ticket deferred.

Footbridge mooted for October now.

Prediction league people have gone almost entirely for a home Harriers win - 26 for that and just one for a draw

there's no precedent for the fixtures to be in doubt due to extreme weather is there?

Freemantle is fit for Saturday

excellent news

I wouldn't want to be in full sun at 35 degrees let alone playing football in it. As mentioned above, is there a possibility of postponement ?

Can someone remind me of the rules regarding taking drinks into the ground please!! Never done it before but given the heat I’ll take some water tomorrow!

Ordinary bottles they'll take the top off and throw it in a bin.

We're taking small flasks with some orange squash inside. I'd like to see them take the top off them and throw the top away. It'll cost them £6 for each one.

Anyway the club/security should relax the rules in this heat. If they don't then that's a little irresponsible of them.
