unless it freezes cant see a problem tbh.

If it freezes and that includes the snow/slush etc the game will 110% be called off on health and safety grounds.
IMO I should add.

The state of the terraces could be a problem. Snow on the pitch shouldnt be a big deal but I'll be surprised if it isnt waterlogged.

I don't know how bad the snow is in Castleford but the game against Huddersfield has just been confirmed as on by Sky Sports.

It's sounding like it'll be OK. Can't wait for it now!

Re: pitch inspection : Sat Feb 19, 2011 3:34 pm  

hopefully the game will go ahead really looking forward to it

any news from your end lads?

Re: pitch inspection : Sat Feb 19, 2011 8:38 pm  

Fully expect the game to go ahead as the snow is slowly thawing in this area. Its then down to who plays the heavy conditions the best. One thing for sure who ever plays halfback for us will need to come up with a good kicking game or where in trouble!

Re: pitch inspection : Sat Feb 19, 2011 8:50 pm  

Weather forecast is ok overnight and tomorrow. If the pitch has been cleared, I would fully expect the rest of the ground to have been started on..... Too much riding on tomorrow with the "new start" to lose it due to health and safety.

Doom and gloom from Mick posting pictures that are not relevent to the current state! Same pictures posted on the Wigan forum - prob put a few off from travelling all ready!
