Why weren't the covers put on? It was forecasted to be below zero.

There will be a lot of people turn up who will be very disappointed to say the least. The -4 pitch cover doesn;t seem to have worked very well
We are off to Fleetwood instead to watch all our past players

I'm not finished here, totally fuming. I see no reason whatsoever for the game to be off, it was understandable during the christmas big-freeze but compared to that these last few days have been boiling! Absolute disgrace. PR disaster. Livid.

How do you think the chap that is celebrating his special day today by sponsoring the game!! He now has 20 guests on his hands waiting to be fed and watered. They will be wrecked by the time the party starts tonight

F**king sick of this winter, I've played 2 games in 3 months myself in local league..
my game was called of and was looking fwd to seeing our new signings instead.
There's been some debate about moving it to a summer game and I was well against it, slowly changing my mind now

PlayIng on frozen pithes used to be the norm. The game's gone soft and there's too much
H & S nowadays.

Get a grip. It is freezing. Barrow, Lancaster, Morecambe, Crewe, Preston, Kendal. They are all off, not just us
All get to Accy on Tuesday but most probably won't

If the covers couldn't cope with one night of frost then they are little short of useless. The trouble is these days they call a game off if the pitch is only a bit hard, i can remember when they would play on a pitch that was frozen solid and with snow on top, orange ball no problems.
