Unless they're electric blankets. That sounds a bit too much like common sense. The irony is that it might be playable at 3pm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not much they'll be able do about that regardless of how much they want it to be played. Looking at the forecast it's going to be 0 degrees or below from 6pm tonight pretty much until kick off.

Absolutely but there’s also doing what you can to minimise it, no doubt teams who are ravaged with injuries etc won’t give two fucks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How much of the pitch would get it though? Low sun this time of year, and stands creating shade. If its frozen now, can't seen it being right in time.

You'd be surprised how many don't have it tbf Got to hope that a good portion of the pitch will get the sun. Get the blowers on under the covers on the other half and we've got a fighting chance. If they leave it until tomorrow then plenty of folk will already be on their way even by dawn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
