The groundsman was stopping there all night to do all he could to get a game on in the Northern prem !!!: roll:
So, we have missed out on a high 4k crowd, corporate stuff and a chance to carry on our great home form for the cost of hire of a few heaters !!

Covers do offer some protection but it is the lack of direct sun that is the root of the problem.
If the main stand had been positioned where the away stand is the problems of a frozen ground may have been resolved.

Cheltenham now 3-1 down at Plymouth which is good for us.
