Did the semi final even happen?

I get the sentiment of wishing players happy birthday and thanking recalled loan players.
But 4 days after losing a cup semi final, there is yet to be an article on the website to even acknowledge that the match took place. Yet yesterday an article of a player recalled.

It must be more difficult to report on midweek events. Everyone is a volunteer and has full time jobs.

Have you considered that maybe no one was at the match who is able to write a match report? People have busy lives, and as stated above, everyone is a volunteer. Midweek matches are difficult for people - I have to work from home every Tuesday which my boss doesn't like purely so I can make kick off times for example. When there isn't a league fixture, it's kind of a break for a lot of people who otherwise dedicate a huge amount of their time.

Perhaps the club just weren't able to get anyone to the fixture from the small pool of media volunteers to do a report? Or even if there were, maybe no one has had the time outside the 90 minutes to actually write one and publish it.
