There are venue changes for fixtures involving Dunston, Carlton and Sheffield. From what I've gathered from Carlton and Sheffield, every March fixture will be at a neutral venue. Dunston are appealing this to the FA (and rightfully so I must say).
Dunston V Cleethorpes 16/03/24 now at CONSETT AFC
Carlton Town V Pontefract Colleries 20/03/24 now at BASFORD UNITED
Sheffield FC V Brighouse Town 16/03/24 now at GAINSBOROUGH TRINITY
Sheffield FC V Winterton Rangers 19/03/24 now at STOCKSBRIDGE PARK STEELS
Sheffield FC V Consett AFC 26/03/24 now at STOCKSBRIDGE PARK STEELS
Sheffield FC V Newton Aycliffe 30/03/24 now at DORCHESTER TOWN...just kidding, even they don't know where it'll be yet!!!
Have to say seems a bit drastic, surely the wet weather will stop soon and some of these teams pitches will be playable?

How bad are the pitches if multiple games are been played elswhere Went to Dunston on boxing day, didn't look that bad to be honest, the worst I ever saw it was ironically against Carlton sometime in late 2022 I think. Carlton I visited in December, was awful. More brown than green, and someone remarked that was the best it looked all season. Never visited Sheffield sadly, but by all accounts it's the worst pitch in the league, which I can believe considering the official Sheffield FC website claims the ground work disrupts the mens team, womens team, and even the local disability team. Clubs really need to question if having the women and youths playing on the first team pitch is really worth it. |

Agree about carlton, as well as the pitch the rest of the ground felt a bit sparse, Suprised it passes ground grading |

They’re playing games at other grounds themselves? |

I think that's what there appealing. Maybe the league have said we're sick of your last minute call offs etc so we are putting you here knowing the games will defo be played. |
