    New York Stadium doesn’t have undersoil heating.

    If I were Rotherham's boss I'd be doing all I could to make sure the game was called off. Can't see it going ahead tbh.

    Something doesn’t add up here I’m keeping my tenner until the players are on the field.
    Rotherham aren’t happy and rightly so how can there be any threat of sanctions in the middle of a pandemic when loads of games are off ? Unless they are covering injuries up which is the only scenario that seems plausible!

    if it’s off when rearrangement happens would it still be classed as a Saturday?

    I should imagine its a kind of switch, I don't know, I've never been privy to the workings of undersoil heating

    I think within reason, there can be point deductions for not clearing the pitch. I.e postponement.

    The snow was expected, and no fans present anyway. Don’t know about undersoil heating - think it’s only the PL where it’s a requisite.

    Three points tonight against a depleted Rotherham and we will be in a fantastic position going in to the new year. It's a chance for Ismael to continue his perfect record in Yorkshire derbies.

    OTOH
    A dose of Covid going through our squad could end with Conway refusing to play with a depleted squad, getting a points deduction and back in a relegation scrap.

    Not saying that would definitely happen, but nows not the time for taking unnecessary risks.

    I’d be checking Rotherham’s water meter ! They might try sprinklers all day get it postponed on waterlogged pitch.

    Any updates on their pitch, is it cleared of snow?

    Could be a really weird game. Wonder if our players will try and keep their distance somewhat?
