Latest League News
Todays league game away to Fleetwood Sunday 22nd March 2009 was the final fixture of the season if it turns out that all teams will only play each other twice one at home and one away.
This would mean that are previous two fixtures Fleetwood at home and Wyre at home would be void as they were offically third round fixtures.
Our final points total for the season would be 54 meaning that Kirkham have to win their remaining one fixture (Wyre away) to finish on 54 points also.
This would mean a one off play off game to decide the title.
We should hopefully know by Friday 27th March if third round fixtures and results are to be honoured and for them to continue.
