Biggest scam ever, pitch frost covers, do they ever work? Games always seem called off even when the covers have been down for days thru from the start of the cold spell until match days, but pitches are still frozen solid!


Pitch covers only work to -4 I believe!

That's good news. As an.aside I left home at 6am this morning and drove past Nene Park which is about 2 miles away and in thick snow. Arrived at my first appointment about half a mile from Villa Park and it was.completely clear.  Next appointment was Stafford so drove past the Bescott which was clear again.  On to Sth Leicester and back in the snow.  Bit of a footy stadium day but bizarre how the weather fluctuates.

I know we are on a run and want to play but a frozen pitch could be a lottery and we could end up losing this game by a fluke or a slip which would be terrible for the side. Better if it was postponed because I'm sure we can beat this lot for football on a decent pitch.

I'm not sure either.

Has TRRFC raised a genuine point here or is he just over-panicking in his excitement ?

On the one hand you could argue Yorks "passing game" will suffer just as much as ours ? (if not more ?)

Alternatively you might think we've more chance of beating York on a fully playable pitch (where the conditions aren't a "great leveller", especially if you think we'll bulldoze them)

Which is better, nightmare conditions or perfect conditions ?
You tell me !
