Harlow Town Resign From League

It is with deep sadness that Harlow Town FC has resigned from the League with immediate effect.

The Harlow Town's statement reads as follows:

"Harlow Town Football Club has today taken the incredibly difficult decision to immediately resign from The Pitching In Southern League, The Essex Senior Football Reserve League and The Eastern Regional Women’s Football League.

As has been much publicised, opinions have been formed with regards to our newly laid 3G surface. We have been working very hard to remedy the issues which we have found ourselves with, we are currently in a position where no home fixtures for our senior teams can be played. The options presented to us are not deemed viable and therefore the decision taken now leaves us with the opportunity to properly plan for remedial actions to take place. It is not expected that this will be a particularly quick fix but we will do everything within our powers to resolve matters as soon as weather and contractor’s availability permits.

We should like to thank all our respective Players, Staff, Volunteers and Supporters for their unfaltering support once again this season and do sincerely hope that you will continue to support us through this incredibly tough period and into the new seasons ahead. What has been of paramount importance is that the Club and its future have been at the centre of the thoughts behind these decisions."
