Re: Peterborough United V West Ham United Match Thread
I reckon we might be alright. No more snow forecast just sunny spells. Their chairman did say the snow is not an issue it's the temperature (as documented on here) and the temp verged on zero degress last night, he commented that all was ok at the moment on his twitter

Re: Peterborough United V West Ham United Match Thread
I £$%^^&* well hope not we, and many others, will be well on the way by then. But as you and others have said, Posh will be desperate for this one to be on so will leave the decisions as late as they dare.Pop Robson wrote:Just watched the BBC Look East weather report -7 up there tonight !

Re: Peterborough United V West Ham United Match Thread
11.00am? That's pants, they need to make the decision either tonight or by 8am tomorrow. If the ground's frozen today (which it probably is with sub-zero temps all week), and with an extremely cold night forecast tonight, there is no way it will be OK to play on by tomorrow afternoon. No reason they can't make that call early to save us starting our journey.Pop Robson wrote:They probably wait until 11am Saturday for a final pitch inspection
Re: Peterborough United V West Ham United Match Thread
We'll be in the pub up there by 11am. I hope they decide long before then.
I imagine it's down to the ref to decide whats a reasonable time to do the pitch inspection and not the commercial dept at Peterborough. Well I hope so.

Sold out and on TV all over Europe
Normally they'd call it off due to conditions around the ground, too money to lose on this one

I'm staying positive. -2 is ok according to their chairman
Fingers crossed
