Although it seems 2020 has not ended yet, we are already at the end of January 2021. And the coldest month of the year, combined with the United Kingdom’s proximity to the cold winds of the northern side of the globe, always brings out at least a few days of snow on each 365-day cycle.
This was the scene at Stamford Bridge a few minutes ago.
Now imagine much stronger downpouring taking place over hours on a pitch without heating. The result is what we see at Twerton Park in Bath, where Chelsea FCW would hold their match against Bristol City for the Women’s Super League today.

SWINDON Supermarine saw their Buildbase FA Trophy campaign come to a shuddering halt on Saturday after a 4-0 defeat by Bath City. The National League South outfit struggled to break Lee Spalding’s men down in a goalless first half before former Swindon Town man, Tom Smith struck twice after the break. Tommy Conway dispatched a penalty to put Bath three goals up, and Tom Richards added a fourth late on. Marine now have until at least January 9 without a game as the Southern League have joined the Northern League and the Isthmian League in opting to continue the suspension of all fixtures.
