I'm kind of with Janaaage on this. If SBC have run out of grit (Sippo on another thread) that'll make it worse. It's a bit rich closing schools and businesses at the drop of a hat(or a flake) then ignoring all the reasons for so doing when a footie match is involved.
That's not to decry all efforts to make the pitch and stadium safe and playable, and it's good to see many people volunteering to help.

If the game was kicking off at 8:30 this morning then it would have been off, in the same way as schools and businesses but there is over 48 hours to go. As Sam Shore says...any thing can happen in the next half hour. |

i've gritted outside my home and it's made no difference at all.although the pitch maybe ok,the car park etc without traffic to break up the snow might mean the game gets called off.if it snows again i reckon it will be off for sure

I've got a real urge to slag everyone off for being quite so sad but I suppose you're making an effort so I won't.

Because our roads are covered in ice and makes it very difficult to get around? It's not like the country has had years of practice on it now is it? Esepcially the 35 and unders, and the older lot have forgotten anyway. Oh yeah they can harp on about the flipping winter of 63 and 76 or whenever the flip it was it last chucked it down good and proper, but it doesn't really help matters eh? Also we've probably had snow down here for a total of what 5 to 8 days in the last 5 years? Yeah let's just carry on like the snow and ice ain't there, that's a much better idea. |

I agree Jan, the standstill argument doesn't stack up for me - this weather happens, what, once a year?
Why spend a fortune preparing for something like that. By that logic, you should keep the London marathon route closed off all year round.
