Doubts Over Braintree Trip


There are already doubts over Saturday's trip to Braintree.

Their home game on Saturday was called off due to a waterlogged pitch after heavy rainfall on Thursday and Friday nights had nowhere to go. Their pitch is said to have a clay base that hampers drainage, with the drainage areas still sodden from recent downpours, and remains underwater in places according to reports today.

Further rain is expected in the Braintree area overnight on Tuesday, with snow also expected through Wednesday. Thursday and Friday are expected to be dry, but with temperatures falling to just under zero at times.

The Bulls have only one free midweek, March 12th, until the end of the season should the match be called off. Braintree are already scheduled to play on that date.
