I notice that the BBC are not up to speed just like usual.

Re: Leamington at home
Blyth game on.
Darlington no confidence with pitch, surely it can't be as bad as the Tranmere v Manchester United game

Re: Leamington at home
Spennymoor pitch was playable, just a jobworth ref, an official who upholds petty rules even at the expense of humanity or common sense.Old Git wrote: ↑Sat Feb 15, 2020 10:10 amJust a dig at Spennymoor in case any of their trolls are lurking.HarrytheQuaker wrote: ↑Fri Feb 14, 2020 9:58 pmWhy they are awayOld Git wrote:Luckily Spennymoor away tomorrow so will avoid an embarrassing late postponement again.

Tranmere pitch muddy field as an example, with man utd playing on it, sensible ref not a jobsworth
Re: Leamington at home
DFC just making the sensible decision. Cant expect to put teams and fans in danger by making them travel in treacherous conditions. But then again, Spenny arent that bothered about fans safety are they?
Re: Leamington at home
Spenny just make fans travel and then call it off. Tin pot outfit.
And polarbear, no the pitch wasn't safe to play on as the dangerous area was right by a fence on the touchline. Had any player collided with the fence due to sliding on the soaked area then the ref would have been liable as he passed the pitch as fit. He was correct to put safety first, unlike Spenny do as we have seen with their attitude towards large numbers of traveling support.
Re: Leamington at home
Joking aside, i will be amazed if the Blyth game goes ahead.
Re: Leamington at home
Only games at Blyth & Gateshead still on (as of noon). Kidderminster and Altrincham will not be happy if they get called off or abandoned.
Re: Leamington at home
I wonder if Hereford will be as considerate towards us like we have been towards Leamington if the bad weather persists next weekend. That would be one wasted journey that would definitely have me tearing my hair out.
Re: Leamington at home
Where's this rain and wind we were promise is Dennis running late?

Re: Leamington at home
Just been looking at the weather forecast for that, as it's about the only game I can get to and from in a day. Forecast is fine, cloudy & chilly but only a breeze.

Re: Leamington at home
I’m sure Spennymoor would have got a game on today. Hindsight is a wonderful thing. How easy to be smug after the event.
Re: Leamington at home
Correct, spennymoor training on pitch this afternoon, you don't call game's off if pitch is playable, unless you don't have any faith in your pitch

Re: Leamington at home
You do if you take heed of the weather forecast and consult with the League. If on the other hand you are arrogant and stupid you force teams to travel and then call games off at short notice causing a lot of inconvenience to others.polarbear wrote: ↑Sat Feb 15, 2020 9:15 pmCorrect, spennymoor training on pitch this afternoon, you don't call game's off if pitch is playable, unless you don't have any faith in your pitch

Re: Leamington at home
I suppose if you have a rich benefactor you don't have to worry about funding the travelling teams costs when the games called off. Unlike fan owned clubs who don't have that luxury. It's a shame Spennymoor don't have a forum where we could all log on and take the pxxx when we were bored.

polarbear: "Yeah, hi, Luis. I've just noticed that you haven't played a home game for over five years now, so I just wanted to know what the hell you think you're playing at?"
Luis Castro: "Well, er, the region's still really unstable, mate. It wouldn't be safe for us to play there."
polarbear: "But I've seen the pitch - it's playable. That's all that matters, Luis."

We will be playing at the arena again next season - fact.
Quakerz - if you actually attended games and spoke to people you might actually find our facts, rather than spreading s*** on this board.
