    Can't we all get down there with our thermos flasks and help thaw it out
  • Lincoln Accrington also put back to tomorrow, with Donnie Accrington moved back 1 day to Wednesday
    Now THAT is common sense... Well done to Doncaster for agreeing!!

    You can hear the ref in the video say something along the lines of “already it’s not looking good”. 

    Get the heaters out and let’s play this baby at 4:30
  • The club message said a couple of areas. It didn't say how large those areas were though.
    They've asked Steve Evans to breathe on them, that should do the trick

    The whole area to the left of the halfway line and the whole area to the right.

    Just keep the heaters going on the areas in question, another inspection @ 3pm and if fine KO @ 4pm!!

    If it does get re-arranged there are only three dates it can be played!!

    23rd March | 30th March | 9th April
    We play Sunderland on the 10th. The only April date is Tuesday 13th. May 4th is also free for CAFC.

    A bit like the Boxing Day match a few years ago, if the ref can’t be arsed to play it, it will be off.

    That would only take 20 minutes to thaw the whole pitch.

    Problem is he'll then be blocking the sun from the rest of the pitch so the rest will freeze again.

    This feels like they're going to try and get it on today no matter what, even if it's a delayed kick-off

    Yes, it looks like we have a ref who wants to give it every chance.

    So just to confirm if I buy my ValleyPass stream now then the game will definitely be called off?

    Equally if you purchase now you wont then have to pay for the re-arranged game unless you get a refund

    Yeah, but wait until the linesman sees it and starts getting in his ear about the possibility of slipping over and getting his nice new flag muddy .....

    Quite warm in the sun now
  • I seem to remember that the pipework was laid for undersoil heating when the pitch was refurbished a few years back. Just need a boiler.

    Don’t give us much hope when the ref can’t give a clear indication of the game on or not ..... what’s he going to be like during the match ...

    such a nothing statement from him

    I’d heard that he always used an old flag and liked to get it muddy.

    Get Evans shouting into one pipe and Bowyer the other and start an argument between them. Might burn the pitch though!
