| Think the club made the right decision. They looked at the forecast which was for heavy snow at game time time and it was spot on. The game would have been played in a blizzard and the roads were well covered at 9.30pm so as Spongebob has said it would have been caos getting everyone away after the game.
4.00pm would have been too late to call the game off. Hospitality was sold out so the caterers would have had to have been setting up to serve the meals and if it had then been called off there would have been substantial abortive costs which if we had incurred there would have been plenty on here quick to criticise.
In my opininion no conspiracy just using a bit of common sense and looking at the forecast.

| So clubs now postpone games on a weather forecast?
Is it the clubs problem how the speccis get home? I doubt it, as for the snow during the game, that wouldn't have had chance to settle.
I give you this as my game breaker, if the game had been on SKY, would it have been postponed?
No it certainly wouldn't!

I can't beleive you're seriously arguing that point when it was a white out last night. The markings would have disappeared before the end of the game!

That's my argument, it wasn't till what would have been half time.......So if it had been on SKY would it have been played?
