Wonder if much of the football gets called off over the weekend

It’s not nice out there

Mostly importantly South Wales looks fine!

Bad in Sheffield. Blades could be about to get their game in hand straight back!

Belper Vs Marske game could be a doubt. Massive disappointment if it is as we've already got lots of games to catch up on and we got a great win against Morpeth on Tuesday night.

Hopefully.

The ever increasing fixture pile-up for them could be to our advantage.

No chance that will be on. Belper is high up and the Peaks have taken it hard.

In the rare position that I wouldn’t really mind if the Dulwich Hamlet game was postponed tomorrow because its so cold, wet and miserable.

Why doesnt england consider switching to summer football late feb to the start of november which includes a 2 week break in the summer for holidays . Attendance would be up as your not going to stoke on a wind swept winters night the pitches stand up to wear & tear better as well.

Have you ever tried playing 90 minutes of football in 30+ heat. Or if it was summer just gone 40+ heat?

Yes, and I loved it, played in Saudi Arabia, which was hot so we had water breaks. I also played a few seasons in the league in Norway, their summers are as warm as ours, and it was far better than playing in the winter here, though our pitches have improved since.

Better to play in, better to watch

Locally the football programme will be hammered this weekend, again.

Doubt it - snow will all melt today.

Doubt it - snow will all melt today.

And the pitches will be frozen solid when the waterlogged surfaces freeze overnight. Again.

Because we'd have the issue we've just had with a major tournament in the middle of the season every 2 years, as well as other weather related reasons.

I remember in 96-97 we ended up playing sat- tue-thu-sat one week. Would be hillarious if Sheff Utd had that

 

[Randy]

Was meant to be at Emley tonight, which is already off and Belper tomorrow which I can't see being on, so will probably switch to Scarborough or if it survives a first trip to Beverley Town in the NECFL.

Belper twitter saying the game is still on as far as they can see. Wonder if they've got pitch covers?

Journey doesn’t look too clever.

Do a professional reserve side play there?

There fans are certainly making it sound like there's a chance it could be postponed.
