THE wintry weather returned with a bang to decimate the league programme once more, as 18 league games and the Suffolk County Primary cup quarter final tie involving Pakefield Re-United all fell foul of the conditions.
Amazingly however, one game did beat the white stuff, as the second division clash between Hopton and Corton A took place. But the home side were perhaps left wishing that they shouldn’t have gone to all the trouble of clearing the pitch at Hopton as they lost 5-1 to Corton A. With this result, the seventh-placed visitors moved up the table to within a point of Hopton, who are sixth.
It is hoped that – weather permitting – the league action will return with a bang tomorrow. And with new kick off times across Waveney of 2.30pm tomorrow, the most intriguing clash looks set to be a taster affair in division one as reigning league champions Hearts of Oak – who like fellow top flight side Pot Black have remarkably only played eight league games thus far – entertain league leaders Waveney Reserves at Normanston Park.
Micki Williams men, who currently sit poised in sixth place with four or five games in hand on sides above them, are 13 points behind the leaders.
Second place Norton travel to fellow village side first from bottom Mutford & Wrentham, while third placed Barsham are also on their travels to play ninth-placed Pot Black who have been boosted recently by new signings.
Fourth placed Oxford Arms travel to tenth placed Blundeston Magpies, fifth placed Spexhall entertain 11th placed Corton White Horse Seltic while bottom of the table Beccles Caxton Reserves host seventh-placed Kirkley & Pakefield A.
In Division two, league leaders AFC Star travel to seventh-placed Crusaders as close rivals in second-place Pakefield Re-United return to league action with a trip to 12th placed Lowestoft International.
Third placed Great Yarmouth Town Hall are inactive tomorrow, while fourth placed Ellingham entertain first from bottom Tudor.
Fifth placed Suffolk Punch host sixth placed Hopton, while 11th placed Norton Athletic Reserves entertain 10th placed Bungay Town A. Bottom of the table Harleston Town Reserves host ninth-placed Sole Bay United Reserves in the other fixture.
In Division three league leaders Waveney Gunners travel to tenth placed Oxford Arms Reserves. The division’s game of the day looks set to be the clash between second place Waveney A and their visit to fourth placed Kirkley and Pakefield B, who are level with their opponents on the same points but have an inferior goal difference.
Third placed Earsham – also level on points with Waveney A and K&P B – host first from bottom Factory Arms, while fifth placed Corton White Horse Seltic Reserves entertain ninth placed Mutford & Wrentham Reserves.
Seventh placed Spexhall Reserves travel to ninth placed Blundeston Magpies Reserves, while eighth placed Norman Warrior host bottom of the table Carlton Rangers.
In the division’s final fixture, 12th placed Marquis of Lorne host 11th placed Westhall 07.

Sorry to say the Primary Cup Quarter Final did go ahead and Pakefield Re-United with a weakened side due to injuries and work commitments, narrowly lost out 1-0 (AET) to AFC Brickmakers.
