Can anybody lend Abergavenny Thursdays a spare map of Abergavenny and District?

On Saturday a car with three Thursdays players got lost on the three-mile journey between Pen-y-Pound and Govilon.

Thursdays had to take the field with eight players for the derby match at Govilon, and during the first half Thursdays lost a player through injury and were reduced to just 7 players.

Half-time came around and Govilon had scored 13 goals. Thursdays then lost another player right on half-time, so, being reduced to six players, the match was abandoned.
