Reserve game is off

Last updated : 24 August 2005 By Tony Scholes

This was the first scheduled home game of the season, although the Carlisle game last week was switched to Accrington a few days before the game.

The reason the League Two side have given for the game being called off is that Burnley (the Championship side) cannot raise a team. This must mean we have been badly hit with injuries at youth level as well, only Chris McCann and Kyle Lafferty would be ruled out after playing for the first team last season.


The game will now be played on Wednesday 18th January, and the reserves will next be in action two weeks today when we play Wrexham at home, if playing at Accrington can ever be considered playing at home.
