bradowl Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 Might be a good thing, I wasn't very confident for tomorrow, rest will help players recharge batteries for Stoke and Birmingham games where we should pick points up. Rotherham v QPR is also off so they won't be pulling away from us tomorrow. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhiteOwl91 Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 The fact we cant (or wont) fund the undersoil heating is extremely concerning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Swingin' Sixties Posted February 12, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted February 12, 2021 One of the coldest nights of the year last night, just above freezing today, -5 tonight. 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? 17 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronnie Starling Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 Frozen pitches in the age of global warming. Whatever next? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much milder weather due on Sunday, should have naturally thawed out. Cant believe we are having to discuss this though. A Championship game should not be called off due to a frozen pitch in this day and age and it would surely have been to out advantage to play them now with them having had some tough games recently.

Ever the pessimist Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 The Sunday rearrangement is a good shout. If we don't at least propose that then it's pretty poor from us to be fair. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swfc1983 Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 Think this early decision will have been made with opposition travel distance in mind. Not really fair to call it off tomorrow when Swansea have traveled all the way up today. Forecast is freezing again today and tomorrow so it’s not going to get any better. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swansea had a difficult game on Wednesday night so the day extra recovery for us would have come in handy. 16 minutes ago, Kanye West said: Embarrassing really, best form we're in all season as well and Swansea just got ran around by Man City. I think it’s great news. I’ll be sorry not to be able to watch tomorrow but many of our players are running on fumes and this gives them a recharge...Paterson, Reach, Bannan, Hutchinson, Lees have been flogged hard. Swansea rested the better half of their players v Citeh, and are in prime league form. I am very happy to put this battle back to another day. Roll on Stoke. They have a super-stiff game at Norwich. Let’s hope it’s the Alamo and that Fletcher and Mikel are the worse for wear midweek. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
