    Undersoil heating costs somert like £10k

    just to turn on if I remember & that was back in 2000 so must be more like £15k today

    Have been wondering if it'll be called off & the Soton fans will really moan

    Especially with New Forest Tyke probably having to make the train journey up with plenty of away fans lol.

    Half expected our game to be off today

    What with the injury and striker problems thought they might not turn undersoil on so we could postpone with it being such an important game

    Don't forget though, it'll cost them not to play it. staff wages, police etc.

    Wouldn't it cost more to postpone a game?

    Surely? That's why teams installed them in first place - they lose so much on Programmes & catering & Police bills etc when there's a postponement.

    If its called off though, next time we play could have a full strength squad which would be better for us. and possibly a new striker.i wouldn't mind if it was callled off.
