Bonus Although I imagine they’d be a bit peeved. They were half way up to Sheffield when it got called off. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coupled with uneven pitch and Swansea having to travel today, seems logical to call it off - an EFL Referee makes the decision not the Club. No-one seems to have mentioned the ploughed field that was Oakwell last night, nor the sorry-looking Elland Road pitch. The long period of very wet weather, combined with freezing temperatures, has played havoc with groundsmen's plans this season. Oh! and by the way we have "a lot of very tired legs out there." Good time for a few more days of rest? POST OF THE DAY ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe. Probably just thinking about the rest they got now though, not what may happen in a few weeks time.

sonofbert2 Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 DC has turned off the undersoil heating so he can continue to pay 100% wages to furloughed staff. It’s obvious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SallyCinnamon Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 Everyone saying that the players need the rest. Great. I’m looking forward to us playing Stoke off the park next week if it’s that easy. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baldrick Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 Rotherham game off as well. Local temperature not predicted to get above freezing for next 24 hours so seems a reasonable decision 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
striker Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 I don't see why under soil heating shouldn't have been effective. Maybe if our players are as knackered as intimated, a tactical postponement. We will be forced to shoehorn fixtures in somewhere so whether now or later in the season, doesn't matter really. A few more days rest before Stoke and Birmingham welcome. These two are important games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
