For those struggling with the concept of League One matches being postponed for international call-ups, the Isthmian League South East Division fixture between Three Bridges and Lancing this weekend has also been postponed due to international call-ups.
Why you may ask are Three Bridges (a step eight team) normally based in Crawley playing home games in Chatham - over 50 miles away?
How would Lancing have as they claim got players back from Dominica for a match kicking off at 2330 our time on Saturday in time to play at Chatham at 1500 on Sunday and then got them back to Bermuda in time to play the return leg on Tuesday?

Well that’s worked out well.
You can’t legislate for the opposition squad, though not having internationals means they are rested

They should just ban international friendlies during the season.
Absolutely 👍👍.
I was a little intrigued by the Three Bridges story and found it masked even more intrigue.
