    Now the games off, I'm wondering what Perks is going to have for dinner today.

    The same as she was before - just more of it due to all the "no shows"

    Scunthorpe have lost 3 and drew 1 of their last 4 away games so don't buy this 'good time to get it postponed.'

    They won at The Cobblers last week.

    every day this week there has been frost. and everyday the frost in London has gone by 1pm. they knew it was going to be cold so you hire a temporary boiler. I find it hard to believe this wasn't done deliberately. they wont admit it but knowing karl (what with the slightly dodgy deli ali deals) I wouldn't put it passed him. the club should have to pay out to fans who have been inconvenienced by the clubs either incompetence or sabotage of todays game.

    Nothing at this club surprises me anymore.
    The club deserves every bit of ridicule directed at it.

    Think this had more to do with the injury list and less to do with the pitch. I'm not complaining Roger has been saved from an embarrassment.

    My understanding is that the heating was laid taking advantage of the pitch being dug up completely and drainage put in. It is a requirement in the premier league and it made sense to put it in then as digging it all is the major expense. It has never been the intention to have it up and running until we get there.

    That makes total sense to me. We do not get the crowds or Sky to justify the expense.

    This, play this when we've got some players back!. Not ideal for a lot of people granted, but not the worst thing that's happened

    I checked planning application and put this on twitter, if something is supplied and installed shouldn't it be working. See no 18

    Great news for Katrien though. She can turn the alarm off and go back to sleep.

    Was at Fiveways on way to open the museum. Most likely cost us £15 in books sales and donations.

    Blimey - what time did he have to set off from Liverpool to make our game?

    KM talks a lot of hot air most of the time. Can't we get her to Prince Charles it and have a word with the pitch? Will be thawed out in no time.

    The food will still need to be eaten so i'd assume she's currently on her way to the ground with a few tupperware boxes

    Is it just a funny coincidence that all the sponsored links I'm getting on this thread are about boilers.

    It's either total incompetence if they don't have the boiler installed / turned on or it's against football league rules if they purposely didn't make every effort to get it on due to short squad.

    Either way, it needs proper investigation and if like @Redhenry has said it was planned, then shame and massive fines should come our way. Absolutely disgusted.

    Scunny fans, you have my utmost sympathies and agreement in your anger in this avoidable postponement.
