The Manx FA has performed its annual ritual of trying to fit enough games in to be able to play the Railway Cup final on Boxing Day.
Featuring the top four teams in the Canada Life Premier League at the half-way point, the large amount of weather related postponements, means they’re not quite there yet.
Saturday December 10 was previously set aside for the semi-final matches, but the FA has scheduled the following Canada Life Premier League fixtures:
Rushen United v Ayre United
Corinthians v Union Mills
Laxey v Peel
St John’s United v Ramsey
St George’s v Onchan
Douglas Royal v Marown
If the top four positions are known after both this Saturday (Dec 3) and December 10 fixtures, the Dixcart Railway Cup semi-finals will be played on Saturday December 17.
However, if the top four aren’t secured by that day, the semi-finals will be played on Boxing Day.
