Not going to make it tomorrow - a mate is taking the boys and using my ticket.

Roll on Tuesday night.

Floodlights were alll on earlier so they must be working on something - hope it's on, we win and go top.

I was confident earlier but macphlea doesn't sound so optomistic now.

Trust me we are doing our best to get the game on - IF it doesn't go ahead then then it won't be for the want of trying believe me...

Mac, even if the club doesn't go ahead. Thanks for the effort, means a lot that the club and people like you make such a big effort for a game to go ahead whilst other clubs are happy to let there games get abandoned.

I think it's great - and a very positive sign - that we're making such effort to get the game on.  That said, I'll be very surprised if it does go ahead.  It's -6°C in Swindon right now, with the temperature forecast to fall further before the morning.  Very impressive if we manage it.

Tough call - it's not going to get above 2 degrees tomorrow - as long as the covers work and the sun shines we should be lucky - big credit to the club for investment in kit to get it on...

Quote to be fair much of the credit needs to go to the  staff who are there through the night - I'll be there in the morning to help get the covers off and will tweet updates as we go...
