You might be surprised that at this stage of the season I actually didn’t venture out to a game on Tuesday evening. Plenty of good reason though, Monday was spent all day at The Hive for a sponsors day with my good friends Nick and Lee, beers, some food and great company from the Barnet management team.

The Bees were home to Bromley the following evening, but with the school holidays in full flow and a week with the kids the financial cost was outweighed along with the fact that there are a likely good set of play off fixtures to take in before May arrives.

I did however take the stream option, unaware that it also gives me access to games on Thursday evening as well which is a nice bonus. But I won’t be taking you through the journey of that stream, whilst they were playing in Harrow we had more contentious postponements happening which is where the focus for this blog is.
