Thawing snow = wet pitch.

If the call goes out for volunteers to remove the snow rather than let it melt into the pitch would it be playable?

We've had two or three people offer to help on Twitter already.

Are there any other people at the ground who could help (apart from the people like Rowley Fordy etc who will be doing it already)?

It would be perfectly playable if we had bothered to remove the snow

winter break we are having one tonights off and the prospects for Saturday don't look great, something needs to be done though. Starting the season earlier or finnishing later might have contractual or financial issues for some clubs

What's a winter break going to achieve? There's a possibility of winter weather anywhere from November to March. This way you have the break when its required ie. when the games can't go ahead. The season is plenty long enough to get the games played.

Following a pitch inspection tonight's game at home to Stourbridge has had to be postponed because of a partly frozen playing surface. This decision comes despite hard work by the groundsman and volunteers to make the pitch playable. Our next scheduled game is at Shaw Lane AFC on Saturday.

I'd say it would be advisable to have a contingency plan for your Saturday afternoon's entertainment....

clearly a call for volunteers to bring hairdryers and cars to thaw the pitch out would have helped......but would have been called tinpot by others.

When will the board get a grip of this weather?
