Disco Duck Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 I can understand them doing an early inspection but given the nature of the pitch surely there’s plenty of time to get this on! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't plod usually chip in about "the public using the surrounding approaches" to the stadium? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 Can't see any way of this being on. There are still loads of path closures as well so there's the safety issue of people getting to and from the stadium. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bear in mind Cove have to travel so I imagine the inspection has to be done before they leave. We arrive at an away ground 1h 45 before kick off so they'll probably be arriving 1315. Two and a half hours travel means they'll likely be leaving 1045, so a 1000 inspection time is probably about right. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bairnardo Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 10am inspection with away team travelling 2 hours and more, it's the easiest call off in the world. Hooe to be wrong 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it was the other way round we would expect the same courtisy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watson Nimrod Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 I would imagine/hope both sides will want it done ASAP but I guess you have pitch commitments etc? This week or next would be perfect, preferably on the Wednesday night 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bairney The Dinosaur Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 Doesn't appear to me to have been a huge amount of effort to get it on (like you see at Hamilton or Stenny). I reckon there might be a reason for that. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a game planned there at 10am which was called off. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
