As Nottinghamshire moves into Tier 4, under the latest Government COVID-19 review, the local Leagues have issued the following statements...

East Midlands Counties League : "All EMCFL fixtures are suspended until further notice as Nottinghamshire, Derbyshire & Leicestershire all go into Tier 4, the next Government Review is planned for 13th January 2021, and the League will review fixtures according to any changes the Government may make." (source: Twitter)

Central Midlands League : "Following the announcement from the Health Secretary earlier, all CMFL games are postponed from tomorrow, 31 December, up to and including Friday 15 January.
The FA have to look realistically at the end of season date. It's OK for Step 6 and above with lights, but not for us.
As South Yorkshire has NOT been moved into Tier 3, games WILL continue in that region only. Fixtures will be posted on FAFullTime shortly." (source: Twitter)

The suspension of the Leagues means that the first team will have THREE matches postponed, while the Reserves will also lose out on THREE (plus last night's postponed game against Blidworth FC).

We have had no information from the Notts Girls and Ladies League or the East Midlands Veteran's League as yet, but with the leagues falling into the 'non-elite' tier of football, we believe that they will follow the scenario set out by the EMCL and CMFL.

Fingers crossed that we will be back up and running mid-January.
