THE chances of tomorrow's (Saturday's) all-Suffolk FA Vase Fourth Round Proper tie going ahead have improved today.
The tie between Needham Market and Kirkley & Pakefield was rated earlier this week as only 50-50 to be played at Blommfields.
But David Bugg, the Needham Market chairman, said today: 'The pitch drained well overnight and the chances of the game going ahead are now 80-20, although there is a pitch inspection planned for 10am tomorrow.'
Two matches in the Ridgeons League have already been called off - the Premier Division match between Stanway Rovers and Norwich United and the Division One game involving Thetford Town and Halstead Town.
