Wondering if I'm on a different planet
If the pitch can't be passed now, I would have thought it is even less likely at 4pm when the temperature will be dropping.

I would have thought that they would have taken the covers off to get the sun on it?

I refer back to my posts saying games should be played simultaneously at St. George’s park to catch up. Getting crazy now the amount of games being called off to COVID or weather

Temperature drops to -1 at 7pm.

If we're already nearby, the kick-off will surely have to be moved forward if the inspection is passed.

I doubt very much that they can make that COVID secure with all the teams and officials etc coming and going at the same time.

If they call it off at 4pm after making the team travel 333 miles then they are total t****. Either call it off when there’s concerns or when the team hasn’t set off. Poor from Barrow.

If this carries on they really are going to be struggling to get their games in. I can see them playing Saturday - Tuesday - Thursday - Saturday at the end of the season.
That situation would play into ours and the other promotion hopefuls hands with the fatigue and subsequent injuries they'll suffer. Better to get your games played twice a week than three times.

They are home again Saturday with a maximum temp of +1c forecast
