Stanley v Gillingham
Monday 11th Jan 2010
9.00am pitch inspection - GAME OFF
Our match against Gillingham scheduled to take place tomorrow evening has been postponed due to the conditions in and around the Crown Ground here in Accrington.
A Football League referee visited the club this morning and particularly bearing in mind the distance between the two clubs it was decided to be in the best interests of all concerned to make the early decision.
Although this game will go down as been postponed because as the media say a frozon pitch ,it ant the whole story IMHO!! i would imagin that the ref looks at everything including the Health & safty of the fans getting to the ground ie snow ice and the same on the terrices and with 5/6inches of snow as well as covers on the pitch,which has protected it alot from the frost.but as it says above (Best intrests of all concerned )
