19s game v Spartans OFF AGAIN!

Albion's U19 game vs. Spartans is off again. There's a story behind this fixture that I think needs told?. In order to book a playing slot at their new complex, Spartans keep insisting on fiddling with the kick-off times. They usually tell us its either a 12.30 or a 3.30pm start time. These times are unsuitable for us and we insist on the traditional 2pm. They try for a number of alternative venues i.e. Civil Service Ground - City Park etc, and this week Inverleith. The latter park has barely been playable for weeks, so it was always going to fall prey to any rain. This weeks weather is the best its been for weeks, but low and behold, Inverleith is deemed unplayable. We offered a late alternative to switch the game to the small park at Pilrig, but they don't want to give up home advantage. This is the 4th cancellation in as many weeks. Will this game ever get played?
