Can anyone shed any light on this friendly fixture.
Hyde V Bolton development squad 19-7-2014.
Many places marked down as postponed (sky sports news, bwfc website), but looking on Hyde fc website it gives the score as Hyde 2 Bolton 3
Any info appreciated, Any prog/teamsheet

Not sure where you got the score from but the Hyde website says it was postponed due to adverse weather conditions.

Cheers for that, when I went on Hyde,s website Sunday morning it had a score of 2-3 I,ll presume this to be a mistake

Many Thanks

Looks like the match was switched to Bolton's training ground as a closed doors friendly.

I understand the pitch was waterlogged due to the torrential overnight rain and there was also the threat of thunder and lightning storms.

The match was played.
Initially it was cancelled as Hyde's newly seeded pitch was at risk following the deluge.
It was switched to "Bolton's training ground", though whether this was Euxton or the Academy at Lostock I don't know (but presume it was Euxton. There is a match report on Hyde's website (although the triallists are not named, unfortunately).
