    They had 8 hours to defrost it! What the ****? They better play tomorrow, if they don't ours will be moved.

    Could play it next Tuesday, remember when we played Peterborough in 2002, they only beat Darlington on the Monday before the game.

    True, but it means people would have to drive, trains will be shockingly expensive.

    Could they not have defrosted it or am I being thick? A combination of covers and portable heaters which the TV could supply?

    Can't wait for our game, it's scheduled for just after pay day. I might treat myself to a mars bar on the train.

    They could have played on our training pitches, apparently they have excellent undersoil heating, worth about £35M apparently <whistle>

    Don't know enough about the situation to judge, but sounds like it should be played tomorrow. Also when it comes to this sort of things very rare that the supporters get thought about.

    To be fair, they've given Brighton fans a lot of warning. Doubt they'll have the same turn up tomorrow.

    Yeah. In response to the defrosting thing, if it's an evening game, it's gonna get colder, so if the pitch is frozen now, then it'll most likely be frozen at 7.45. Plus all the danger etc. of ice outside the ground for supporters.

    Of course they won't people will have had to book the day off work specially, employers aren't going to let them have the day off tomorrow as well, especially if the employer is someone not interested in football.

    Not from the trolley, obviously. I'll buy a multipack the day before and take one from there.
