Maybe we should have the council as the groundsman instead, some kids matches are still going ahead this morning and they only spend about an hr a year working on the grass and literally no money.

Imagine if it was Fleetwood. 😮🤣

Sorry but just not acceptable a championship club game being called off for a bit of frost the only one in the championship as it stands.

Are we the only team at home in todays fixtures without undersoil heating? Ad this to the list, bit more important than some snowflake Karen reporting someone for farting

Read my post on the other thread Phil, at least it is one thing I know about and there aren't many!! I have lost so many work days since the end of November because of the weather, it's not as simple as you are saying, far from it. The only way we could have saved it was by having undersoil heating and that should have been a given when we got in the EPL so it is down strictly to the scum that were in charge then, it's not the current regime's fault. It may be something they are considering of course but it has to be done pre-season and then the cost of running it.

I think there maybe a bit of planning involved. Cup game next. 2 weeks for Mick work his magic, players to recover from injury (we don't know how many were out) and for new signings to arrive. Disappointed but it's for the best. .

C u all at Southampton then - we move forward - its better than losing 3 points today and give Mr McCarthy another week to prepare and get a few more fit/check some 'sick notes' and give the F A Cup fixture our best push - we have a chance against Soton if we can get a decent 15 players fit.

Enjoy the sunshine, I expect our players will be training today and lets hope some of the teams around us flounder in the frost.

Maybe they didn’t use the lighting rigs / heaters. The fact that they mentioned that they did use them gives the impression they are protesting too much.
Or maybe I’m just a cynic.

Lighting rigs are for grass growth. No mention of heaters, do we have any?

I'm not convinced the club will have wanted the game off. Fixture congestion and lots of inconvenience.
 
Spent a couple of hours travelling over but actually don’t mind…..too much. Will give Mick a couple of weeks to get to know players before next league match. Also see how they fare in the FA cup.
 
Was looking forward to the game mysef but can understand it getting called off ,why risk injury to players when we are already struggling ,cant blame the club for the weather or not having undersoil heating ,thats down to the old regime,anyway lookin forward to the cup game now,got my tickets this morning.
