Why do you lot just talk crap for the sake of it?

We can't play good football in these conditions.

Doesn't make any difference to finances at all.

I was there on a Saturday morning trying to clear 2 inches off the pitch a couple of years ago and it was too much of a mammoth task, so clearing 6 inches is near an impossibility.

The rocket science 1 is to call the game off at the earliest offortunity without causing inconvenience to the opponents and their supporters travelling. Afterall, I would not like to get part of the way to the ground tomorrow knowing that it has a low percentage of being played.

Rocket science 2: Get to the ground and clear it yourself rather that slate the people out there in the sub zero temperatures.

1- did carlise give a toss about you when they did not delay the kick off? You never went anyway probably so tuff to turnips mob. 2- where do I state I slated for people for doing a great job? 3- flogging a dead horse at 2-45p. Is strange when it's still snowing 4- rocket science says remove the snow when it has stopped. 5- they were asking people to clear the surrounding areas not the pitch lol So read the post and put your glasses on, keep warm in your house as that's probably where you are Onwards and upwards.

Wrong on some accounts !

I WAS at Carlisle and was also in the ground when the fans arrived on the buses just before half time and have seen over 600 games home and away in a row and I would have been at the CG clearing the snow (travelling up from Chippenham) if I am not working until 10 tonight.

As for the rest, I admit I am wrong and apologise for that, and I agree that its flogging a dead horse when still snowing heavily.

And I totally agree - What is the point of clearing the surrounding areas when the pitch is unplayable (covered in snow)

Fair play my apology to you also.
I've been driving all morning from swindon to bampton , witney, long hanbourgh, kiddlington back down the a34 to Winchester but after a artic decided to over take me with ice on the road and smash the barriers a fraction behind me I decided to head back home down the m4. Still shook up, so that's why I would not drive to the c/g and help as it is too dangerous to drive, must be bad even the kebab man won't deliver lol.
I applaud everyone who is doing a great job.
Still think we are flogging a dead horse, but hope I'm wrong.
But I will repeat I don't care about any away fans now after the carlise game , especially turnip after his rant last season.
Onwards and upwards

Mild tomorrow??? at 3pm it's supposed to be 0 degrees & light snow! I suppose compared to Russia it's mild!

Having lived in Canada for a while, I have to say, what a load of big girlies blouses on here. You can't clear a tiny bit of snedge (6 inches)? Oh your poor hands might freeze? Try digging your cars out from a 6 ft snowstorm in temps of -40.
