Just been on Sky - Shocking communication

@ASFCofficial
BREAKING match referee Mark Brown has decided to postpone this afternoon's game with Burton following a lengthy pitch inspection

 

[mab]

Ya just heard on radio lacs as we set off! Ref called it off at 2:05pm because of a 2foot wide patch of frost in front of the mainstand

 

[Exile on Spencer St]

Don't suppose The Crown pitch is wide enough to take 2 foot off either side and still be within the 'rules'?

Why was it shocking communication, was put on the website straight away

 

[smudgie]

Awful.

On the radio before the club announced...disgraceful

According to Mab the radio said the ref called it off at 2.05pm, whcih give a minute or two was correct, it was published on the website at 2.05pm, there were a few journo's in the press box so they must have phoned it in.

Well it mentioned in the pub, perhaps we could have afforded undersoil heating, if that midfielder hadn't played upfront against Yeovil.!!!

Maybe but we wouldn't have had time to get it installed before today On the bright side, if I remember correctly he won't play again as his loan's up on 3rd Jan (hopefully before 3pm)

It would have only taken 30 seconds to fit the square inch required today

Sorry, Accymad but it's Jan 3rd inclusive so he'll be trundled out as is his right.

If you get Buzzer to dig up the frozen area of pitch, put it in a matchbox and place it on the Exter pitch the game will be off

 

[deeayess]

I'm sure I should be annoyed here but after a few beers it doesn't matter so much. It might be different tomorrow at work with a hangover though

 

[cashman]

Is it me or what? the ref was here 11-30 ish! was obvious to me it wasn't gonna be a thaw today, so why did he p1ss about, shoulda been called off then in my eyes, that way many who traveled would have been saved the journey.

Maybe, depends on who the ref is????

Stop being so disrespectful.

Referees read message boards, the last thing the club wants is for one of its fans who is consistently full of hate, for no good reason decides to abuse a referee based on his name.

Stop being so paranoid and precious at the same time!
