Is there a pitch inspection today?
 
It's only slightly above freezing here in sunny Great Harwood. Does anyone know if there's to be a pitch inspection before today's game,or is it definitely on?

According to the club twitter it will be on but nothing else official. I hope it is because I'm at Carlisle now on the way down

Let's hope it's on for your sake then ;)! And there's me moaning about having to travel 3 miles from home in this weather!

I,ve been up this morning club shop open stewards arriving according to Buzzer pitch a tad hard but playable so game on I presume.

There'll be quite a number of us travelling from various parts of the country today. It'll be very frustrating the pitch is hard and the game's off.

You can never be sure until the match ref has seen it, however my garden grass is frosty but playable :)

It looks OK in the pictures on twitter so hopefully it will be fine

Good news, we could always relocate the game there if the ref decides he doesn't fancy getting cold knees :)

Does the absence of any Official declaration mean that we can all be optimistic ??.
Including any travelling ' Brewers' who might not take kindly to a postponement. !.

Refs already inspected... A few hard places inspecting again at 1.30 Buzza reckons it's playable.

Gonna get ready & set off soon, fingers crossed we get the go-ahead - if all else fails there's always the pub!

Re: Is there a pitch inspection today?
 
It's off!!:( I heard it on Radio Lancs at 5 past 2.

Why is it still not on the fishy site? Terrible customer relations.

Don't suppose the Burton fans will be too happy either - surely it was worth giving it a bit longer in the sun, apparently it's only a couple of patches that are a bit hard

Aye, but even if it had started it would have been called off at half time as temperatures and daylight fell.

It can't be worse than the Oxford game in the face cup. I left home at 7 this morning and been waiting about in the cold most of the trip down so not happy either but what can the club do if the ref calls it off

Its on the "NEWS" page....but when we are trying to get a quick view of the match status it should have been on the HOME page which you see as soon as you log on....I agree poor admin/communication. I feel sorry for the Burton fans and our own fans who have already set off or travelled to the match. Surely a decision could have been made at 12.30pm? I bet it is the side of the pitch in the shade of the main stand that is still frozen!
BAH HUMBUG!!:mad::surprise::bingobang:eek::blinky::ok: :thumbsdow

Commiserations to you. :( Referees don't give a toss about folk like you!

There's currently an 11-a-side training session taking place on the pitch. The danger must have subsided momentarily...

The pitch would have been fine after the teams warmed up on it with hard studs.

Perhaps the referee was more interested in the sales. Turned up at 11.30 and called it off at 2.05. Odious little toad.

" I bet it is the side of the pitch in the shade of the main stand that is still frozen!"

Yes according to Dan Jewell on Radio Lancs it's a 2 foot wide patch in front of the stand.:(

I suppose so & that would've been worse but at least we could've adjourned to the pub & moaned about it - ah well, suppose it will be rearranged for a Tuesday night now which will no doubt mean a smaller gate but when the man in the middle says no what can you do :(

I wonder if referees still get their wages and expenses if it's called off? If so that's not on!:(

What do you think....err, if I call this off I'll have pay my own fare!
I just wish that was the case as wimps who pass for refs don't deserve payment.
