    Hope it’s off. Cousins are sponsoring the game & I am meant to be there for midday.

    Nothing wrong with that, but have to get back to The O2 straight after, which is a pain in good weather.

    Wow. Are you Paul Weller?
    Haha...I wish! I’m hosting clients for the gig though and don’t fancy freezing my nuts off and then trying to get back there after the game.

    To save me telling the cousins I am going to give it a miss, after they picked this game especially, a postponement would be nice :smile:
  • I’ve been based in Kingston for work all week and if the game isn’t called off at midday tomorrow, it will definitely be off by Saturday morning. Heavy snow showers expected in the area from about 16:00 tomorrow till midnight. I’ve been given the okay to leave at lunchtime tomorrow.

    But...they did manage to get the Blackburn game to go ahead, so here’s hoping.

    The Blackburn gane was tues night & I don't think SW London had had any snow by then. As you say, London is forecast to get a load tomorrow afternoon & evening. I wouldn't bet against them saying that at 12 noon tomorrow that it was playable & then having to call it off at 11 am on sat.

    There had been snow here but no where near the levels that Kent experienced. Wimbledon groundshare with Chelsea ladies and from what I understand, Chelsea have provided Wimbledon with covers for the pitch. So it won’t be the snow that will be the problem, it will be the freezing weather. On the way back to Kingston station I’ll try find a park or a grass area and give that a good thud to determine if it’s frozen or not lol
    The condition of the roads around the ground will also be a factor, e.g. with that game of ours which was postponed because the area around the Valley was too dangerous

    Get the snow off the pitch, let it melt elsewhere and not into the playing surface, and let the pitch get some air and sun

    At the moment only 4 L1 games left on Saturday, and I'd be surprised if all of them made it, especially the Scunthorpe match!

    That's 2 weeks away, seems a bit OTT

    Sensible call - No one wants me having to write a Match Preview in this weather!!
    Not to mention all the likely interruptions from nappy changes and bottle feeds :wink:
  • Good news. I can make the Tuesday. Anyone selling?

  • Me too if anyone wants to flog a terrace ticket

  • Anyone ITK about Dulwich Hamlet, please, and their chances of playing tomorrow?

    And any other reasonable suggestions for a match? Our German friends are here, and God forbid that in the absence of football they should turn to strong women and loose drink ....

    Find a game in Bexley village then on to the Millers afterwards.

  • Would never happen at our club!!!
  • As far as I can see, this will have to be played on April 10th, 24th or May 1st. My guess is April 10th.
  • I have received an email from Charlton, telling me game off. Not sure who is responsible (Olly?) but this is a big improvement in communication.
