Completely unacceptable that our juniors have to put up with this on their home pitch. Stunned and lost for words. To the people who did this, why not get involved in a club if you're bored enough to resort to this? It will give you much greater satisfaction.

The fact @RuncornLinnets have to travel 340 miles tonight for a game, with possible extra time and penalties, getting back at 3am, is ludicrous. The @FA really needs to take a look at this replay situation for long distance games. It's not fair on players or supporters of clubs.
