Burnham Ramblers 1 Bethnal Green United 4
Even the last game of the season was affected by the weather which played a part in most of this seasons senior league programe. Strong crosswinds and heavey showers were the order of the day at Bowers & Pitsea but the football on show would always keep the crowd of 307 entertained with both sides creating many chances during the 90 mins.
Bethnal Green however always held the upper hand with two early goals inside the first twenty mins from Shane Drew and Steve Willis.
Burnham were unlucky on a few occasions as they came out fired up but the next goal was always crucial. Bethnal Green got the all important strike on 77mins through Richard Johnson. Remi Nelson who looked comfortable all afternoon made the scoreline slightly onesided on 81 mins before Burnham deservedly got a consolation in injury time through Marc Gorbell.
A big well done to Bethnal Green who made it a cup double in their 1st season at this level..quite an achievement.

Due to safety around all of our grounds the league has issued a statement which will see the cancellation of all midweek fixtures.
Its a slow start to the new year in the Essex Senior league as the winter weather affected all planned games during midweek.

Saturday 9th January
With artic conditions continuing this weekend all Saturdays games were lost on Thursday meaning the League will face a rare wipe out.
Finding a fixture at most levels across the entire country will proove a very hard job with games being called off at the highest levels with Championship sides and the Football League fixtures list being hit hard despite some pitches being deemed playable the surrounding areas and link roads being classed as unfit for travelling fans.
The weather forecast for the next few days is not good cold north easterly winds and the chance of more snow with temperatures struggling to rise above freezing are predicted.
This must leave clubs and fans alike frustrated and eager to get this cold snap over to avoid a backlog of fixtures as we enter the final 3rd of the season.

For regular updates please check football.mitoo for latest postponements or phone before you travel to avoid dissapointment.
