Conference Fail To Pull Chester Trigger

Chester's fate has been put on ice for another seven days with the Conference again shying away from booting out the club.

Saturday's opponents Histon have made the only official announcement so far, confirming that their match has been postponed after the Conference 'upheld the suspension of Chester City'. Press reports suggest that the phones at the Deva Stadium have also now been cut off.

The Conference is seemingly preferring to delay until someone else, likely the taxman, pulls the trigger on the club. As it stands the players remain unpaid, home games are at the mercy of the Police, and away matches will only happen if the coach company is paid.
