    Yes - and they were taken over last week so this does all have a bit of a pungent whiff to it.....

    That really is pathetic. Called off less than 2 hours before kick off. The state of the pitch won't got any worse this week because of the dome. Neither would it have got any better overnight. It could easily have been inspected and called off last night and saved hundreds of wasted journeys.

    When interviewed about the takeover: http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/25592144
    "Outgoing chairman Michael Slater, who took control of the club along with Jimenez in early 2011, added: "In every important respect we leave the club in a far better state than when we took over three years ago. "

    Apart from the pitch obviously!

    Plus compensation for a wasted day...I'd say £100 compo would be reasonable.

    I suspect Danny is not too disappointed. More time to get signings in and work with the squad.

    Plus they should award Barnsley the three points, dock Charlton ten points, pay everyone the day rate that they would get at work and then as a gesture of goodwill they should hire some Russian prossies for blowies all round.

    There's no need to be that extreme.

    They don't need to be Russian.

    It was fairly obvious as early as last saturday that it would be called off. It should have been called off yesterday.

    Aye, but only if Wigan lose their FA Cup replay with MK Dons. We are officially down to play Wigan on the 25th Jan.

    Don't really mind myself more time to hang out with mates without the depressed feeling of getting hammered again. Gives us more time to sort the team out.

    Will you play Kennedy or is that one undecided, and who do you mates prefer up front with O`Grady.
