CINDERFORD Rugby Club are desperate for the rain to let up, having not played a home match since December 21.

Indeed, they've only played twice at Dockham Road since beating Fylde on November 23.

Club president Peter Bell says the weather is hitting the club hard on and off the pitch.

He said: "It's beyond our control, but the worrying thing is there is no sign of a let up.

"Other clubs are sneaking results while we're not playing. We've got a lot of self belief after taking nine points from our last three away matches. Had we played our last two home matches we are confident we would have got two wins. Add 10 points to the mix and the table looks very different."
