  • BBC News this morning, we are expecting around 6 inches of snow in the next 24 hours.
  • OOH, I've not had 6 inches in my back yard for quite some time.........................
  • It's 'in your endo' time again!!
  • Not expecting 6 inches again Lee are you?
  • If it's off am going Barnsley v Birmingham to tick Oakwell off my list.
  • Met Office is predicting a temperature of minus 4 for Chesterfield on Friday night . I would say its 50 / 50.

    Pitch cover is meant to protect it down to -5. If in addition there is snow cover on top then I reckon there is a pretty good chance of it going ahead.

  • Sorry guys, the only weather site that gets these things pretty much spot on is http://www.netweather.tv case, before the home match last week it said -6 and that is what it was.

    The very bad news is this. http://www.netweather.tv/index.cgi?action=uk7dayx7;page=3;ct=6119~Chesterfield;sess=#forecast

    00:00 = -7
    03:00 = -8
    06:00 = -9
    09:00 = -8
    12:00 = -4
    15:00 = -3
  • Sorry if i've given people the hump by starting this off , i'm having Charlton withdrawal symptoms at the moment , what with last Saturday's game being called off , as i said at the outset i just hope we can have plenty of notice so we can plan other things if the game is not going to be on.

  • I can not take another football day without Charlton playing my head will explode. I will end up being dragged around the shops again, in my top looking like one of the sad plastic fans from Man U or Chelsea. Please weather, go away, come again an other day (preferably then Charlton are not due to play please).
  • Your right Stras , there's only so much shopping and decorating you can do! ;-0
  • The Met Office has issued an "amber" warning instructing people the north of England to be prepared for widespread ice, while "yellow" warnings for snow and ice are in place in a number of English, Welsh and Scottish regions.

    Forget it.
  • Bromley v Staines Town it is then
  • Worst month for it as Welling are away all month so I can not even go and watch them :-(
    (as they are the only other team her in doors let me go and watch)
  • I must admit it looks very doubtful the game will go ahead. Temperatures getting below zero and if the pitch freezes on Friday night it simply will not thaw out. Not good and another midweek trip to fit in for the team. I'm at Waltham Abbey on Saturday with a Sunday League game the next day and I am not holding out much hope. Football-less weekends are painful....
  • I dont know!
  • WSSWSS

    Cawley is saying it could be called off tomorrow.

    Temperature forecast to be -7 on Friday night. No looking good.

    Oh hang on, Met office say -2, BBC say -3.

    Is there a contingency plan in place for Charltonlife to manage the escalation in b******ks that is likely to occur following nearly two whole weeks without football?

  • do the club have any equipment to lend Chesterfield to help the game go ahead?

    Football?

    See I'm talking b*****ks already and it hasn't even been cancelled yet. It's gonna be a bloodbath I tell you.
  • do the club have any equipment to lend Chesterfield to help the game go ahead?
    Considering our equiptment didn't work for us last week, can't see this being the case....................

  • expecting heatwave in Chesterfield of -2 ....reckon another weekend off

  • Better News is that MK match looks like it will go ahead, bad news no away I will even be able to listen :-(
  • On the bright side, it means that the players will be well rested for the MK match, and all those players like Hollands who needed a rest have now got it!

    I notice Sheff Utd are at home - do they have undersoil heating?
    Wednesday are at Exeter, I presume this will go ahead as it's been warmer down in the southwest

    Hmmm...one week off and you could call it a rest, but two weeks could dent their match sharpness ?

    Gutted that this is almost certainly going to be cancelled. Train tickets aren't cheap and I assume they don't refund based on the basis that the game you were going to Chesterfield for was called off.
  • I can see most lifers going into meltdown if another week of football is cancelled!

    Hopefully if the game is off it'll be because of snow so the trains will stop running as well, so those on the train will get a refund.

    To late, at least half of us lost it at least 3 days ago.
