[oufc1991]

I reckon p-p but if its on 2-1

 

[oufc1991]

Surely there will have to be a pitch inspection today when I cycled from littlemore to headington this morning everywhere was frozen including my toes lol

 

[Sarge]

Slip n slide through a tight game in Baltic conditions , 1-0 Bate grabbing the glory


- assuming todays ref allows the game to go ahead

 

[OX14]

When will we know if there is going to be a pitch inspection?

 

[holdsteady]

I reckon it will be on, as long as the pitch has been covered it should we fine. Plus weather will be like this across the country for the next week or so meaning another postponement, it’s fairly standard winter weather.

Pitch inspection at 9.30 this morning

Lower than expected temperatures.

Pitch inspection at 9.30 this morning

That’s my confidence if it being on rocked

 

[Northstandboy]

That’s my confidence if it being on rocked

I’m sure the ref would want an inspection even if the club at 99% sure it’s fine.

Pitch covers protect against freezing down to -5/-6 degrees - Benson was -8C last night....

It’s -3.3 in my garden

 

[OX14]

Thing is as soon as they take covers off its still cold enough for it to freeze over now.

 

[Berliner]

Probably won't go ahead now I'll wager...

 

[Northstandboy]

Scrap that, -4 now!

 

[Sarge]

Scrap that, -4 now!

Bbbbbbaltic

Think it will be postponed but should it go ahead I can’t see us beating Barnsley. In fact can’t see us winning any of the next 3 until we meet Charlton

Going for 1-1 draw which would be fine if we‘d beaten Accy and FGR but this will no doubt see us slip down the table

The Marina is frozen at Abingdon OX14 which means it’s bloody cold
