If the Barnsley match is off... [merged]

[TheDuke]

the players fly up tonight - so hardly a rest as wont be called off until tomorrow........saying that tho - i really do hope its off and we can concentrate on palace....

Don't think the players are flying tonight... Gus said flying last Friday but coach today

Tomorrow's game could suffer from a little bit of snow I think this could benefit us ?

Tomorrow's game could suffer from a little bit of snow and get called off !

Will this benefit us ?

Thoughts

To have the same amount of rest between games as you know who will be of benefit, I would have thought. Plus spending any amount of time in the north of England cannot be beneficial really, can it?

But then again, it depends when it is rescheduled to.

I'd rather we played and win to have more of an incentive to play better on sunday

Having paid for train tickets and hotel overnight on a non-refundable basis I shall be somewhat aggrieved if it is called off again!

 

[Thunder Bolt]

As I said on the other thread, Barnsley could be low on confidence after their cup game, and a win would give us confidence, putting us back into the play off positions, therefore giving us some impetus for Sunday.

Edit to say there's no snow forecast for South Yorkshire but if their under soil heating fails, then it could be off.

 

[Joe Gatting's Dad]

Their youth team match has been called off today due to a frozen pitch (picture on their website).

However, forecast for tomorrow is a daytime high of 5 degrees. They do also have a dodgy undersoil heating system - see prevous threads.

not sure our players are the type for -3 up north on a tuesday night........i hope its re-arranged and the players don't travel north.

 

[Steve.S]

Better to have the points on the board, so lets hope its on

 

[sully]

It's freezing cold at that ground on a warm day .........

 

[Foolg]

We had snow again last night, 2nd night in a row.... It's all melted give or take the last few patches already.

Tomorrow is forecast in Barnsley to be above 0 degrees from 10am onwards, not dipping below freezing until after midnight (by which time the games over of course). Highs of 3 degrees, and they do have undersoil heating.

SHOULD be fine.

It looks like we're playing then.

Not convinced we'll be able to get there ok and if we'll be able to get back afterwards.
What are the chances of hitting the A23 in the early hours and getting stuck?

 

[Springal]

Well I will be there. Just hope the game is on

There are other roads into Sussex.

Most of the snow should be melted by then, together with car/surface heat I doubt there will be a problem.

It will be completely fine. Once out of the coastal area it will be no problem.

A23 was awful last night!

One of my friends left London at 5pm and didn't get in until 4am this morning!
