Too early to say. Forecast at weekend suggested more snow between now and then, met office forecast now says no more snow.

[Shrimpsscene]

our typesetter was telling me hes been under a foot of snow down there in london
power cut yesterday too
apparently footbal league are having a meerting this morning to call some matches off possibly all of them but check the offical website for any news on our match

[Gnasher]

The forecast doesn't have the temperatures dropping much below 0 in Morecambe, I think the pitch would stand inspection but there's more likely to be problems Brentford getting here in the first place.

spot on brian
im sure that will be in their thinking when they make decision today
think we have rain forecast here tomorrow so pitch would probably be fine

[Number 1]

In view of the fact we're playing Brentford, I should imagine travel for them would be quite difficult, so I reckon they should postpone the game today or before this evening if they've any sense.

more snow showers here now

I know its probably a bad idea in these 'harsh' times but couldn't they come up today and stay in a hotel, i thought thats what they would have done anyway as it must be a 5-6 hour coach for them. I know the fans can't or are not expected to do this but i wouldn't have been expecting too many to make the trip anyway.

Arsenal - Cardiff postponed because of safety fears over travelling. Can't see ours being on if that's off.

[Shrimpman]

i think is because of the heavy snow fall at arsenal

They are pulling out all the stops at Bradford. It would be a shame if they lost the Sky revenue tonight

Maybe Danny will get a hat trick

Bradford game just called off so no view of Danny on the box tonight.

Pictures of our pitch today from the Brentford forum :-

Some photos I was sent this afternoon

[Christies Child]

Even though Bradford had covers the game is still off as further snow has falllen after their removal I understand. Tough on all those who played their part in trying to get the game on.

Interestingly we appear to have taken the view not to use the limited covers we have. From the pics supplied to Gnasher I would think that the game could go ahead assuming that there is no significant drop in temperature overnight.

I would think safety of those travelling would be the deciding factor. The Highways Agency are now advising 'not to travel' unless essential. As much as we like to see football as "essential" but it isn't really! More bad weather forecast tomorrow so I doubt it will happen

I checked a run from lancaster to london this afternoon, mainly motorway with no delays more than 10 minutes except for a fuel spill on the M1.
