Would be good if we could manage to get our game played tomorrow to avoid having to have our replay on same night. I realise I've almost certainly jinxed it now of course. Cove have a plastic pitch, so don't see any reason why it should be cancelled. I just hope we're in a position to put out a half decent team !! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryanayr1987 Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 Think the weather has to be milder overnight so not worried that it will be postponed 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably contraversial but personally starting to feel Coyle et al need to decide our priority and set the team up accordingly Nothing controversial at all, some of us were actually thinking the same thing ourselves, although we're away to cove twice within the space of 6 days !! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wullieaufc Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 Pitch inspection @ 8am tomorrow 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hursty Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 Can't see this being on - inspection that early is surely just to confirm the away fans don't need to travel. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not holding much hope that it goes ahead either now to be honest. Away to check where else I might be able to go to catch a game. Will be a SC tie somewhere fairly close I hope. Maybe go to Gayfield 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUcal Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 A lot of pitch inspections being announced for tomorrow. Can see it being a bit of a shite Scottish cup weekend with loads of fixtures rearranged for midweeks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eez-eh Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 I’m no groudsman admittedly, but when your pitch is covered with a literal sheet of ice it begs the question have Cove actually gone to any effort to get the game on? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not so sure - that leaves us with Cove A Cove A Queens Park A in a Friday - Tuesday - Friday run coming up. The way things are going I dread to think what sort of XI we will be able to put out by the time we get to the Queens game 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AYRSHIRE_ANGUS Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 The temps are looking above freezing for Aberdeen but the wind chill factor will probably keep it frozen by 8am tomorrow. The weather has been quite dastardly this Winter. Morton was an unexpected frosty one before subsequent days of mild weather, last Sunday was perfect for football after Saturday's hurricane and this Sunday in Aberdeen is looking decent too. Best we win the league to make up for it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
