“We turned up Saturday to see both dugouts had been dismantled, fencing around the changing room had been felled, and the ball-stop net had been ripped.
“Three poles had been taken out of the ground and snapped and there has been damage to the roof of the home changing room and referee’s room from fallen trees and branches. This really is something that we hadn’t planned for and with money already tight at the club, we asking for
the goodwill of people to help us to rebuild.”
