I see on the OS that we have been accepted back in to the reserves league

Oddly we want to play them at Bradley Pitches not at BP

I do think it will be good for the team though

Cheaper running costs at Bradley surely?

Seems a shrewd move Imo.

cant see how it would be as we own BP, reserves play during the day so no Lighting needed, No stewards needed normally where we would have to rent the pitch and changing facilities at Bradley

Are the games in reserve leagues still 3pm kick offs on weekdays? Would go to more reserve games as the FDC is 2 minutes from my house but due to work would miss games

Wondering if they do play at the FDC will it be on the all weather pitch as the grass pitch will be being battered with potentially over 50 games coming up this season with Borough and Cleethorpes playing on it.

Both teams play some of their games on the astro - in he Lincs League for example, they have the right to do so as long as visiting team obliges.

Maybe, they'll let reserves play there for free/reduced fee in exchange for a bit of groundsman help and extra money on the bar a night games. You'd get 30 o so down no doubt. A load them have a pint in the bar. It all adds up.

It's not that surprising as it is a community stadium and smaller. Could we ask to have the markings replicate BPs dimensions? I think they should.

There reserves do in the Lincolnshire League, wont apply this year but they could have if they were entered in the FA cup but was under the impression you could not use it in for games in the Northern Counties East League and cup games

Could also easily be that hosting the reserve league opens doors for further funding and grants for the stadium from the FA?
