Title: Tuesday v Barnet Post by: Sam9255 on Saturday, February 4, 2012, 21:19:48 What's your thoughts on Swindon v Barnet home 7th Feb. do you think the game will go ahead discuss here ?? :)
Title: Re: Tuesday v Barnet Post by: reeves4england on Saturday, February 4, 2012, 21:29:10 I don't have many thoughts on it. My main thought is that at least if it gets postponed I might make it to the re-scheduled date.

Title: Re: Tuesday v Barnet Post by: Notts red on Saturday, February 4, 2012, 22:10:03 Agree^
Title: Re: Tuesday v Barnet Post by: DRS on Saturday, February 4, 2012, 22:29:26 I think it will go ahead
Title: Re: Tuesday v Barnet Post by: slinky on Saturday, February 4, 2012, 23:46:06 What's the weather like in Belgium?
Title: Re: Tuesday v Barnet Post by: Navyred stfc on Sunday, February 5, 2012, 02:16:34 Will be keeping one eye on the Crawley v Cheltenham game, a draw would suit us nicely there, although a win for either side wouldn't be so bad for us aswell.
Title: Re: Tuesday v Barnet Post by: Batch on Sunday, February 5, 2012, 07:37:52 So, anyway, I assume there is no snow in Swindon? Got to drive back from York today, which will be "interesting" until we reach a major road as we have 3 inches and are staying well off the beaten track.
Irrelevant to the game either way, it'll be gone by then! Title: Re: Tuesday v Barnet Post by: DV on Sunday, February 5, 2012, 09:03:47 yeah we all know what happened when a thread like this was started before Torquay. Delete.
Title: Re: Tuesday v Barnet Post by: Flashheart on Sunday, February 5, 2012, 09:08:15 I think maybe the match will go ahead. But then again, perhaps it won't. :sherlock:
Title: Re: Tuesday v Barnet Post by: tans on Sunday, February 5, 2012, 09:46:07 What is the snow like in swindonia? How deep?
Got about 10cm here Title: Re: Tuesday v Barnet Post by: Samdy Gray on Sunday, February 5, 2012, 09:54:35 Light dusting. It's melting already.
Title: Re: Tuesday v Barnet Post by: Sam9255 on Sunday, February 5, 2012, 10:05:41 Is the heated dome still on the pitch ?
Title: Re: Tuesday v Barnet Post by: OOH! SHAUN TAYLOR on Sunday, February 5, 2012, 10:07:08 Is the heated dome still on the pitch ? What do you reckon? :sherlock: :hmmm:Title: Re: Tuesday v Barnet Post by: Rustle on Sunday, February 5, 2012, 10:10:12 The paths and roads around the side streets are as slippery as fuck tho,but the temperature is 2.2° at the moment.Hopefully it will melt today and tomorrow without freezing.
Title: Re: Tuesday v Barnet Post by: Ardiles on Sunday, February 5, 2012, 10:24:20 I've noticed over the last few years that Swindon seems to get off more lightly in general when snow falls than we do. We have 2 to 3 inches here. Even though we're less than 60 miles away by road (and prob not much more than 40 miles away as the crow flies) we always seem to get more snow.
Why is it that the east in general, and particularly counties like Norfolk and Lincolnshire, seem to get heaviest hit? In terms of rainfall, the east tends to be dryer. Title: Re: Tuesday v Barnet Post by: Flashheart on Sunday, February 5, 2012, 10:34:43 Is Swindon not in a valley?
Could have something to do with it perhaps?

Why is it that the east in general, and particularly counties like Norfolk and Lincolnshire, seem to get heaviest hit? In terms of rainfall, the east tends to be dryer. East Anglia is flat and open to the elements. It also gets the cold fronts blowing in from Russia. The west is wetter and usually milder due to the gulf stream. Title: Re: Tuesday v Barnet Post by: ronnie21 on Sunday, February 5, 2012, 11:09:59 Is Swindon not in a valley? Don't know about a valley but we are situated between the Cotswolds and the Downs so that may have something to do with it. Just to the east, the Chilterns seemed to get a battering last night!Could have something to do with it perhaps?

Just to the east, the Chilterns seemed to get a battering last night! there you go then, classic rain shadow reasonable amount of snow, couple of inches in Coventry, not enough to close tgi Friday though. nom nom nom.

Covering all your bases I see :doh: Title: Re: Tuesday v Barnet Post by: No Longer Posh Red on Sunday, February 5, 2012, 12:42:01 We've had about 4-6 ins overnight.
Just hoping that it's gone by Tuesday. Looking at the pictures on the official site, it looked like we had the same kit that the shitheads used to defrost their pitch, and obviously they got their game on. Hopeful that the game on Tuesday is ok Title: Re: Tuesday v Barnet Post by: Bogus Dave on Sunday, February 5, 2012, 12:51:26 Funny how the weather works. Had about an inch of snow here in bath yesterday afternoon, it had all melted by midnight. Quite warm now
Title: Re: Tuesday v Barnet Post by: Dirk Diggler on Sunday, February 5, 2012, 13:50:10 No snow left at all in North Swindon. So warm that I have just turned the heating off after 4 consecutive days & nights.
As a consequence wouldn't have thought that there will be a problem on Tuesday, save another -10 tonight or tomorrow.t Title: Re: Tuesday v Barnet Post by: TheMajorSTFC on Sunday, February 5, 2012, 13:54:31 Having a cheeky look around the Barnet forum, they've already started a 'Barnet v Chesterfield JPT Final Thread'...confident and secondly, they've sold around 180 tickets for Tuesday!
Personally I think if the game goes ahead we'll beat them 3-0 and get to Wembley! I am looking forward to another London trip on Saturday back to their place where a few 'cue sera seras' will be bellowed out from our lot :D C.O.Y.R!!! Title: Re: Tuesday v Barnet Post by: Flashheart on Sunday, February 5, 2012, 14:10:23 To be fair, the starter of that thread is getting a bit of a bashing for it.

Title: Re: Tuesday v Barnet Post by: Jackstfc on Sunday, February 5, 2012, 19:16:06 We will be travelling 380 mile round trip on Tuesday to see the game, so the next 48 hours will be interesting.
Next day or so looks ok (above freezing) so the thaw will be on but by Tues night back to -4C, so just praying decision is made as early as possible and that if its on, the weather change during Tuesday doesn't lead to a 6pm call off :headhurts: Title: Re: Tuesday v Barnet Post by: stfcinbmth on Sunday, February 5, 2012, 19:17:56 We will be travelling 380 mile round trip on Tuesday to see the game, so the next 48 hours will be interesting.

Obviously not Title: Re: Tuesday v Barnet Post by: Jackstfc on Sunday, February 5, 2012, 19:29:20 Thought my 140 mile round trip was bad enough. Obviously not Well, when PDC emails you reminding you that the players can't hear you shouting at the tv, you don't really have a choice, do you :D Title: Re: Tuesday v Barnet Post by: Notts red on Sunday, February 5, 2012, 19:30:04 Well, when PDC emails you reminding you that the players can't hear you shouting at the tv, you don't really have a choice, do you :D :clap:Title: Re: Tuesday v Barnet Post by: No Longer Posh Red on Sunday, February 5, 2012, 19:46:22 Well, when PDC emails you reminding you that the players can't hear you shouting at the tv, you don't really have a choice, do you :D Nope, gotta be done. Just hope that if it is off, the call is made early Title: Re: Tuesday v Barnet Post by: Gnasher on Sunday, February 5, 2012, 19:48:32 Nope, gotta be done. Just hope that if it is off, the call is made early -1 on Met Office, -4 on BBC. Supposed to be warmer in the day so I'm sure it'll be on. Title: Re: Tuesday v Barnet Post by: stfcinbmth on Sunday, February 5, 2012, 20:01:56 Well, when PDC emails you reminding you that the players can't hear you shouting at the tv, you don't really have a choice, do you :D He hasn't mailed me yet |
