Fane has put a picture on Instagram which looks like the covers are on. Either way might be another delaying tactic to cancel the game to get certain players fit before these big games.

One postponement due to proper weather versus a series after light drizzle due to a not fit for purpose pitch. Behave, you clown. Double standards. Typical Tory.

Not that it matters - as mentioned previously, snow is a good insulator... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobledgersheart Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 Snow is a good insulator but it needs removing before it melts and turns into a quagmire if the covers weren't on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leeslover Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 It looks like they've cleared most of the snow on the North stand half, I presume left the rest until it reaches thawing point tomorrow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whittles left foot Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 Is it not the far side gets some sun whereas the nearside is always the problem if there is a sharp frost due to it always being shaded? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’re definitely not getting enough from Byrne or Pringle at present. Neither are creating nearly as much as they should be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfotunately we are not getting the Pringle that ripped us apart when he played for Rotherham, he used to drive that team forward particularly down the left and the high energy action packed performances seem a thing of the past, to be fair injuries may have contributed to his loss of form, overall he has disappointed in much the same way that Paul Green did who I also expected good things from judged on how he used to play against us.

Stagger Lee Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 Has Pringle been better than Banks?- Yes easily! Has Pringle been better than Flynn? - Yes Has Pringle been better than Green? - I think so - though Green would have proved useful off the bench at Blackburn. Is he as good as he once was or people want him to be? - Maybe not, but one thing I am certain off Pringle has improved the team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leeslover Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 I think we're taking the hit on playing Pringle back to fitness in the hope he's really on it in the run in. He was fairly decent Saturday until his legs fell off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moimbe had no protection & Pringle has no pace. Weak link? Disagree with that. He was a key part of a very accomplished first half performance. And the 2nd half I think we have to put down to a very very good Blackburn team, full of championship players, with a vastly experienced manager, simply outplaying us. As much as many people seem to want to point fingers and attribute blame for not winning (not aiming that at you by the way, rather at some of the slightly hysterical post match reactions!). Sometimes the other team is just better. He's had a long spell on the sidelines, so it was always going to take a few games to get up to speed. He may never reach the level he was at Rotherham but I don't think we can properly judge on his first few games for us. Added to that, he's got bags of experience, so wouldn't be looking to drop him from the team at all in the position we're in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hands on Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 Its going to be cold and miserable and playing will hasten the demise of the pitch which is in free fall but a win tonight is essential as otherwise we will be back in 22nd when we next play and will have had a long time to think about losing.
