[Albion] Leeds United - away

[Mellotron]

Geordies are walking about in T-shirts.

f*** me it must be cold up there.

Bucketing down here at the moment.

Rain?

Rain?

Nope heavy snow apparently if you check twitter

 

[Official Old Man]

It's not so much the pitch conditions that will call off the game, more the safety of the fans attending the match. Deep snow outside or slippery terracing and it's off.
ST leave at 7:15am so I wonder how far we'll get before a Yes or No is called? 3pm KO would mean about 12:00 inspection so I'd have thought somewhere around Sheffield.

I reckon it'll be ok to be honest. It's barely laying on the pavements here and we're 100m higher up than Elland Rd. And it's 2 days away.

According to BBC weather it wont get above 1 degree on Saturday. Im more worried about trains- getting the 9,30 from London which arrives in Leeds at 11.45.

It’s 1c in Leeds today and the trains are running fine.

Better not get postponed, travel and non refundable hotel booked, also the fixture congestion back end of the season is bad enough already.

 

[Ron Manager]

Bit of a long shot, I don't suppose anyone is driving to Wakefield afterwards and could squeeze me in?

 

[jrbha]

It wont be postponed. The snow from this morning has turned to rain in Leeds. Be fine for Saturday.

That's good to know. Thanks.

Teq-Ball is amazing when played by top pros - love it

Quite a bit of the white stuff up North, anyone locally with an update ?

What route is that, via Nottingham?

Everything is running fine up to Leeds this morning even with the white stuff. Odd cancellations here and there for shortage of Traincrew, but otherwise no issues.

 

[Stumpy Tim]

I had match and pre-paid train tickets for the same match last season, and tested positive for Covid in the morning. If it's postponed this season I take full responsibility.

Not sure about Leeds but I wouldn’t be able to get out of my lane at the moment. Hoping for a quick thaw!
