Good to see that the lancs cup final has reverted to a one-off game instead of the two leg affair that we've had for a couple of seasons. I know it's being overshadowed by everything else at the moment but we are in the semi final on Tuesday and this could be (I only said could) our last chance to play for it.

Arden Hall Park has better facilititties.

Does it matter?
This is our last chance at slummin' it! We should make the most of it!
Gone are the days when Frickley Athletic were a team to be reckoned with; let's go for it and prove we haven't forgotten our roots amongst all the worldclass footballing supremity that holds us aloft at the top of the Conference.

I would presume the LFA headquarters in leyland will be the venue. Unlike most people on here I have had the priveledge of having taken my footy coaching badge there.
Its a large conferencing centre essentially, with a large astroturf pitch for training sessions, and a large cricket field at the rear. However pride of place and looking like a crown green bowling lawn as you come out of the doors is a beautiful pitch, with stands and a small amount of seating around it.
We all asked if we could stand at pitchside and see what it was like and we told in no uncertain terms that if we went on the pitch we would be thrown off the course!!!
This was a couple of years ago however but if its to be held here then expect the pitch to be good coz it's treated like the crown jewels!!!

Can't see too many being at the game as i guess we both have quite different priorities at present!
I expect both teams will use it as an opportunity to give fringe players a run out, I know Liam has certainly indicated that he might. Who knows, you might see jamie Speare in goal for us!
Can't say I'm too impressed with the venue selected for the final and it goes to show the prestige of the lancs cup is diminishing. It's not that long ago the event was held at deepdale, then victory park, then a two legged game and now a ground which isn't even a proper football ground. Bit of a shame for the tournament.
