I drove down to Devon from the Potteries on Monday morning without any problem but having seen the feather worecast on Monday evening, I very much suspected the game would be off. I was staying a couple of nights in Torquay where there was very little snow but on Tuesday afternoon, I drove out...

If this get's postponed again, I will kill somebody. ;)

There's nowt wrong with your groundsman .... just your bloody weather!!

We certainly have a vacancy! In the 92-93 season I came down to St James's twice in a fortnight for midweek games - Autoglass and League - but at least that was in the warmer weather and they were both played! By the way ... I really am female and I really am old!

The ref saw the pitch for the first time when he arrived at the ground which was well after noon. I assumed this was his normal arrival time. The problems with your phone system were not the reason why I couldn't get a reply. I read about them on your website and it said that the fault meant...

The Vale fans, however, were faced with a long and wasted journey. This was made worse by the fact that a member of staff at Exeter told me on the phone on Friday that the game was certain to go ahead, even when I pointed out the predicted very low overnight temperatures. It also reflected...
