Romsey’s second team have pulled out of today’s match (29th Sept) with Ventnor II, disappointing players and fans looking forward to a rare appearance of Ventnor’s seconds at Watcombe Bottom for a match sponsored by Abacus Express Logistics and John Adams. Speculation is that sight of a strong Ventnor team sheet crushed Romsey’s spirit and willingness to travel.
Ventnor will get the league points for this fixture, and will be well rested for next week’s local derby with IOW II.
