seems pretty obvious that the ref thought the pitch was fine, but the 'surroundings' weren't. They are just on the wind up for twitter engagement and sympathy points.
Watford trying to look good in their fans eyes after it'd been said ALL parties agreed.
Referee cleared the pitch for play. Watford wanted to play. At the very least, Hull must have been trying their best to get the game called off by invoking the "areas surrounding the pitch".
And you reckon the ref just went along with us rather than making his decision himself?
still the refs call though innit daft lad?
Down to incompetence.
Weather forecasts for the past week have mentioned a cold snap.
West stand touch line won’t have seen the sun for a month or so .
Tarps and straw remove an hour before kick off…that was the old fashioned way.
The frozen area would have been unplayable at 9 am and was never going to thaw.Should have been called off then.

Whilst I fully respect the sentiment around the Withernsea incident, could you please refrain for posting comments about it on this thread.
This isn’t the place to discuss it or go into speculative details.
Thank you.
If anyone has a problem with this request, PM me and I will put it a bit more bluntly.

I get your fans frustration and it’s 100% on our grounds team for not having the stadium fit to play.
But the posts from your club and from you are embarrassing. No club is purposely trying to postpone a game because they have a few injuries, we’ve not had a fully fit squad all year. We’ve beaten better teams than you with players out.
Not a chance Acun is dropping 30K on a private charter and wasting a day of his life traveling to keep up the appearance we wanted the game to go ahead.
