    What is it with every single club I've seen, including Charlton, having three blokes with pitchforks jabbing at the pitch. Never going to clear that amount of water! Water always wins.
    That's no way to talk about the Doncaster Rovers midfield.

  • This weather is starting to pee me off big time!!! Look forward to footie on a Saturday and feels like something is missing when it does not happen!!! Gutted for the fans that went to Sheffield.

    Can't believe they didn't have any covers on
  • Sheff wed fans should pay for all the charlton fans transport for the away leg, its only fair for having a shit pitch!

    This, how on earth haven't they covered their pitch
  • Looks like 4th March is the only slot available for the game, with the quarters on the 8th.

    why ? , the league game pencilled in for the 25th will be cancelled cup takes precedent.

    Game is set for the 25th. Our game at home vs Barnsley is off.

    Judging by the photo posted at 10 a.m., the pitch wouldn't have been playable if inspected a couple of hours earlier. That would've saved loads of people the time and expense of wasted journeys. Clattenburg fails.
  • Luckily for me, still in York and haven't bought my train ticket yet. Gutted for those already en route and pissed off to missing out on having a beer with some old chums @Stewart - don't worry mate, I'll pay what I owe.

    To top it all off I'll probably get home and surprise the missus in bed with the milkman :-( bouncy bouncy indeed!
  • what is the source for info that it will be on 25th?
  • If I was on rte I reckon I'd head to preston to say my respects to a legend

    Outraged. Who doesn't do a pitch inspection the night before a game?

    Right I'm going to call savage in 606 to blow this all out of proportion....

  • I've never know so many games to be called off at Hillsboro' in recent years, feel sorry for you guys coming up!

    Rotherham is still on for anyone stuck in Sheffield till later this evening. New ground syndrome
  • Mate we have done it this year thing is when u drop like both our teams have in recent years the pitch gets neglected its a short sighted approach but one that's understandable

    Barnsley' s official twitter confirmed the game against us if off on the 25th due to our game vs SWFC.
  • Who's the tin pot club now...

    wouldn't be time for a replay - a league game will have to go.
  • let's hope for no replays so we are on the box.
