PITCH INSPECTION

Wed Jan 16, 2013 4:21 pm

Reports are saying many football league games will have a pitch inspection either friday night or early saturday morning due to heavy snow expected across the country friday daytime , the games most at risk are the ones mid to north England .
Blackpool dont have a great pitch and they have no undersoil heating :o shocking for a ex prem club .
Wouldnt suprise me if this is called off . Problem is it then gives us a 3 week break before the next game at leeds . :cry:

If the weather forcasters have got it right and the temperatures are low enough for heavy snow as the week goes on it will be touch and go, getting up there may be the biggest problem even for the craic.

Unfortunatly we are due heavy snow all day friday according to local weather sites, but Blackpool never really gets it, in my 25yrs up here weve really only had two big snowfalls and it tends to clear in 24hrs
