ONLY ONE ALLIANCE GAME
The only Alliance game to beat the weather yesterday saw Harraby Catholic Club win 3-1 against Ashington Colliers, with goals from Combe, Anderton & D. Armstrong. The Gillford Park pitch resembled the City pitch prior to Xmas, at the end of the game.

WEEKEND PROSPECTS
The prospects of any football this weekend are probably quite slim given the prevailing weather conditions. In the Northern Alliance, City are scheduled to travel to Shankhouse (k.o. 2.00) and they will be without the suspended Robbie Mather, but Stuart Kilgour should be fit to return.
In the JJ Club Whitehaven cup, City travel tomorrow to Windscale Reserves (k.o. 1.30). The name of the Egremont-based side is probably slightly misleading as their first team no longer plays, and the "reserves" have only lost once all season.

WEEKEND PREVIEW
Weather permitting, City hope to entertain Gateshead Rutherford in the Northern Alliance tomorrow (k.o. 2.00). Obviously, there is a doubt over the game given the cold conditions this week and we will update the details as soon as possible.
In the County League tomorrow, City are scheduled to be at Workington Red House (k.o. 2.00). This should be a close game with City just one point behind their 3rd-placed hosts.
