    I’m convinced with the minimal effort and expense that game could have been played and imo little or no effort was made to try and get the game on .
    Covering an already frozen pitch preserves the frozen ground especially when there was a thawing weather prevailing .
    A modest amount of water would have unfrozen the part of the pitch affected with little or no detriment to the playing area .
    It’s no wonder people have suspicions of the clubs motives especially given the well publicised disruptions in their squad .
    Snd to add insult to injury they have laughed in the faces of our club and fans with the flimsy if at all attempts to inform us of the situation .

    Good statement is that. Fans need compensation and our club should get back the full cost of the trip to go down the day before. Nobody fans or club should be out of pocket for something that isn't their fault. It shouldn't have come to this. Anyone with common sense would have called it off before people set off.

    Good response from my club today both in word and deed whilst the silences from both Devon and the EFL are deafening. Well done BFC.

    Crap statement. What ever happened to the one line we used to get :D

    Seriously though very shoddy treatment for those who were attending the game.
