At least our "little" defenders won't have "The Beast" Mansett to worry about. He's about to sign for Reading for a reported fee of 440,000+!!!!!

Here's the pre-match interview with Coley from the training ground this morning. You might be able to hear the lads in the background being put through their paces by the medical staff!

Think that the frost would help to be honest Grimps, it might help to make the pitch harder - especially in the middle!!!

Just got home as working nights, temp fell to -5.5 overnight hope they had the covers on. Off to bed now so hopefully catch you all at the game if its on.

As long as the pitch is rolled and not rutted anywhere it should be okay by this afternoon. Just about 0 degrees now so should start defrosting soon :)

How many Saturday matches have been called off this season? The reason I ask is due to shift work I cant attend midweek games, and was wondering if I should forget my season ticket next season and pay on the gate.

I reckon this is the 4th (if you count the Boxing Day game v Crewe, which was actually a Sunday) - Shrewsbury (4th Dec) Burton (18th Dec), Crewe (26th) and now Hereford :mad:

Re: Hereford thread
 
I normally don't comment on any games nor on the cancellation (and the reasons thereof) of any matches, the reason being that residing in the smoke there are relatively few I get to see. However, I do try and work around a calender that allows me to get back to Accy around half a dozen times a year to see a home game.

Last week, I looked at the calender and decided to take the opportunity to take in the Hereford game. I checked the weather forecasts in advance and called a few people back in Accy and the picture emerging was that of a slight frost but no weather problems, so I came up on thursday night ready for the game. There was no indication of any problem friday; on saturday morning, it seemed OK; then saturday lunchtime, it was off.

So it was a wasted journey - and not a cheap one, at that. Surely there should be some indication on the official site of a probability of a game being on (or not) during the cold weather period, or at least some indication of what is happening and what is the state of the pitch?

Wasn't there some sort of scheme this season whereby you got credit in the shop for unused tickets.

Preston are doing something on those lines;

Well at least we were not the only club to have the game called off - Bradford had there's called off for the same reason.

:) Accrington Stanley have the 4th highest Ground in the football league so it's not really surprising to have games called off this time of year, but at 516ft above sea leval we have a 50/50 chance depending on the weather and with temps at -5.5 last friday night /saturday morning in Accy their was little hope really :(.... for full list of grounds click on the link http://www.midfielddynamo.com/stadia...nd_highest.htm

Aren't we lucky? A ground that's not only one of the highest but also one of the wettest.But at least Ilyas got rid of the slope.

Who's said covers weren't on?? I was there at 8-45 and after a quick brew helped Buzzer to remove the covers. Don't re-call any Accywebs being there, but I could be wrong!!

8-45am SAT AM.:)

Covers were ON, over night. I believe they were on Thursday night as well, and were taken off Friday am to allow the pitch to "air" and then put back on Friday afternoon.

They were certainly on the pitch Friday night.

I have no problem with that Mr T and no reason to doubt you. I was told by a fan that he was walking his dog at approx 6am Saturday morning and he thought the covers weren't on, I asked him if he was sure because it's still dark and he said "I had a good nosy but I wouldn't swear on the wifes life", crap source of info I think.:o
