    I hope it's on for the poor buggers that will be watching knitting channel in the hotel if it's called off.

    Seems sensible to inspect this afternoon before they set off if the team are going down today.

    I just really hope that if they are going to call it off, they do so well before 6pm today so that we can change our train tickets without fees.

    Thank you! Seriously though, if it's unfit when they inspect mid-afternoon, it's highly unlikely to be any better after another night of freezing temperatures.

    But we won’t know the rearranged date before 6pm so it’s a loss?

    a full day tomorrow to warm up so surprised if they make a call so soon

    They could roll out the blowers like they did for Chelsea v Arsenal.

    It's the right thing to do with our team, fans travelling so far, isn't it?

    A racecourse has a mile of track. Hopefully some sheeting, common sense and a day of sun will help. Biggest gripe is loss of money if everything not refundable (Hotel and train)

    You have to make sure the landing strips are safe too.

    Can't they put a call out to the local streakers association and get them to roll around on the pitch, warming it up?
