If the temp drops below minus again tonight and the ice/slush hasn't cleared I suspect it'll be the safety issue of the surrounding streets that will get the game called off if anything.   More probably the open steps inside the ground. Safety of spectators seems to be quite often quoted by the spoilsports these days. We stood in the open corner for a cup game in January 1959 against Man.City and watched the players come out if the tunnel and immediately start rubbing their legs with the snow. There must have been 3-4  inches of snow on the pitch because no grass was visible and we stood for 90 minutes in a lot more than that stamping our feet to keep warm. I could be wrong but I don't remember one snowball being thrown though. Town drew 2-2 and won the replay at Maine Road. “If all mankind minus one, were of one opinion, and only one person were of the contrary opinion, mankind would be no more justified in silencing that one person, than he, if he had the power, would be justified in silencing mankind.” ― John Stuart Mill, On Liberty."

We were awful and lost 2-0 but as you say, most of the time Town fans spent having a snowball fight on that grassy bank that they used to call an away end at Springfield Park.
