RYMAN DIVISION ONE (NORTH) WEEKEND PREVIEW - LEYTON RESIGN FROM THE LEAGUE

Ryman Division One (North) Weekend fixtures


AFC Sudbury V Redbridge
Cheshunt V Romford
East Thurrock United V Great Wakering Rovers
Harlow Town V Grays Athletic
Ilford V Waltham Forest
Maldon & Tiptree V Potters Bar Town 
Thamesmead Town V Needham Market 
Tilbury V Heybridge Swifts 
Waltham Abbey V Enfield Town
Wingate & Finchley V Ware 

Most readers will have already heard about Leyton's recent withdrawal from the league meaning their scheduled game at home to Brentwood Town will unfortunetly not be going ahead. The club's future now looks somewhat 'up in the air' as they are reported to be suffering from some financial problems. 
 
Enfield Town's match at Waltham Abbey is subject to an early morning pitch inspection at Capershotts so make sure you check the game is ON before travelling. There has been large amounts of rain in Ryman Country in the last few days meaning there are other inspections due.
 
The games of the day probably come when both title challengers are in action with East Thurrock United welcoming Great Wakering Rovers and Needham Market making the long trip to Thamesmead Town. Another important game takes place when two teams fully in the play off mix meet as Maldon & Tiptree entertain Potters Bar Town.
 
The Essex derby match between Harlow Town and Grays Athletic is bound to attract the largest crowd of the day at Barrows Farm. The relegation six pointer between local rivals Ilford and Waltham Forest now takes a new meaning as with Leyton's demise it may be only one team who are relegated at the end of the season.
