The Board of the Pitching In Isthmian League met earlier today, and amongst the items discussed was the statement published by Staines Town FC yesterday.

We have now written to the club, noting their objection to playing further matches at Wheatsheaf Park, and as such have decided to postpone the match between Staines Town and Chipstead scheduled for Saturday. We hope that this will give all parties the breathing space required to find a resolution.

We hope that the club will still be able to play scheduled away matches, and we have offered assistance, where this is required, to enable home matches to be played at suitable alternative venues.

Pitching In Isthmian League Chairman, Nick Robinson, added:

"We very much hope that the situation can be resolved in a way that delivers a positive outcome for Staines Town Football Club. We are available to assist with any footballing matters going forward."
