I can't see it being on. I've been to the Wigan U20 v London Scholars game today and that was played, but they moved the touchline in by 10 metres on the South Side because of frost penetrating the pitch where the stand had prevented the sun from thawing the pitch.

What about pitch inspection tomorrow Milly ?

Re: Is it on : Sat Jan 29, 2011 7:27 pm  

The ground is solid. It is has been all day and it is already 0 now. Today's sun wasn't strong enough to make a difference and tomorrow won't be any different. Is it worth playing a 'friendly' - testimonial or otherwise - and risking injuries for the sake of waiting a few days for the pitch to thaw out?

Re: Is it on : Sat Jan 29, 2011 7:33 pm  

I agree so has the decision been made and no pitch inspection tomorrow ?

But that's because Wigan council had the foresight to put in undersoil heating.

Wigan councill didn't have anything to do with the design they just ok'd it. Wigan council wanted to dig up and close the road outside the ground the other year. The closure was to start the day before we played Wigan in friendly and would last 4 days. Thats how clever Wigan council are.
