Hide AdPeebles manager John O’Hara said: “We are not the only team, but we can’t get a game at the moment as the weather has ruined everything.
“The games that have went on though have brought about good results for us. Everybody has been beating each other which has been to our benefit.”
Fast-forwarding to his sides clash with Coldstream, O’Hara added: “Coldstream’s league position is a bit unjustified as they are a better side than their place shows.
“We beat them 4-1 at home, but it was a much closer game than the score suggests. It will be a difficult game for us especially as it’s at Coldstream, but we have guys returning to the side which is good news.”
