Following government advice, look at short-term gain ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s what happened with Rovrum. V Derby right? So we call the season off? Do we still have the undersoil heating and if so has anybody asked why it has not been used? Shouldn't we be fined for not doing everything to make the game go ahead? Surely if we have a method that allows the game to continue, we have to use it? As others have said, I think we have messed up by putting the game back. We had extra days rest and now a fixture pile-up. I wonder if the club are going to elborate?

Reminds me of the golfers who cannot see white frost on the greens, and get the mump on when temps are in use. I would say there's a good chance by 3pm tomorrow it will be playable, yes.

theowlsman Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 The game being called off will bring a huge sigh of relief to Swansea with us being on a roll. Oasis soup btw. You got a roll with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it had been 5deg all week - no problem. However in a few hours i don't think it will. If only we had the opinions available in the days of Steve Kiddy.

Taximark Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 22 hours ago, SallyCinnamon said: Personally think it’s a great time to play Swansea. Just had the run around from City in the cup. We would be fresher. Shame. Why is it ? They weren't expected to beat Man City who are in magnificent form. Swanseas league form currently is really good and I wasn't really looking forward to this game so with the Stoke game coming up this might be a well earned rest for that game, let's just hope Stoke have a few suspensions and injuries today. By the way I think its the EFL that makes the final decision isn't it ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we don’t, it will turn out a shame this game didn’t go ahead and a lot of people will look silly. A chance to carry on our excellent home form. And yes it’s the EFL’s decision if it’s postponed.
