I'm not going. After spending the best part of last week snowed in (after 3 days the village shop was out of provisions and by Saturday we were reduced to re-using our last tea bag and milking the dog) I only just managed to get to the JJB and back on Sunday. I think I'll give the icey wastelands of Hull a miss. I lived there once so I know exactly what it can get like!

Makes no difference to me. That's only the time the coach is leaving. I'll be in the pub for 12 so come 3:45 I probably won't be bothered :lol:

Sneeze of snow and I bet they call it off. :roll:

Could be worse. In the 1962-63 season Wigan had 12 matches in a row postponed and went without a game for 76 days (Christmas to March) because of bad weather. This County has gone soft!

PLAYING SURFACE

* The grass surface measures 114m x 74m providing a FIFA standard-sized football pitch of 105m x 68m and a full-length rugby league pitch of 100m x 68m with in goal areas 5m deep.
* The grass is 100% natural, comprised of 90% sand and 10% loam. It also has 3% additive of man-made fibre.
* The fibre is woven into the roots of the grass and goes down 200mm. If threaded together, these fibres would circle the globe!
* The pitch has an automatic irrigation system as well as under pitch heating.
* When the temperature drops to below 4°c undersoil heating provides enough heat to raise the temperature to 9°c.

* The water porosity of the pitch at source is 25-30mm per hour.
* There are 22 miles of under soil heating pipes.
