CrispyMelon Posted December 1, 2023 Share Posted December 1, 2023 (edited) 3 hours ago, Uncle Albert said: Any news on the weather up there? Will the game go ahead? Forres Mechanics v Brechin has been called off 12 miles along the road if that’s worth anything. Might just be a Forres pitch issue but I’d imagine there’ll be an inspection at Borough Briggs Edited December 1, 2023 by CrispyMelon 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am Muilleach Posted December 1, 2023 Share Posted December 1, 2023 Just now, BullyWeeStonehouse said: Surely no… No pitch inspection planned? Hmm. I'd be very surprised if that is the case. Temperature dropped pretty quickly here this afternoon. Forecasting -5 overnight and barely rising to zero by mid-day. I will be (pleasantly) surprised if the game is on. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s feels about -3 down here so I’ll be amazed if the games on! To not have an inspection at this time of the year, with the current weather and distance between the two clubs seems daft to say the least. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least something of a lesson learned from this biscuit tin outfit. But really just call it tonight and move on. Fairly obvious this game is not going to be on. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starryfish Posted December 1, 2023 Share Posted December 1, 2023 I live around a mile from the ground, -3 just now and falling, not sure why they can’t call it off tonight, no chance it’ll be playable at 7.30 tomorrow morning. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elginer Posted December 1, 2023 Share Posted December 1, 2023 I assume the pitch covers are not down. If not why not? They cost a lot of money but are rarely used. Clarification from the club on this would be useful. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Elgin City Posted December 1, 2023 Share Posted December 1, 2023 The pitch still had a large covering of frost about 3 o'clock this afternoon before the temperatures dropped again. No chance of this being on. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cityloon Posted December 1, 2023 Share Posted December 1, 2023 If pitch inspection is 7:30am I doubt it’ll go ahead especially with it getting even colder over night and at that time in the morning there’s no way it’ll be thawed out even if inspection was later on in the the majority of the pitch will still be unplayable probably 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Only one David Marsh Posted December 1, 2023 Share Posted December 1, 2023 Minus 5 when the pitch inspection is planned I'd be suprised if this is on 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLClyde Posted December 1, 2023 Share Posted December 1, 2023 Would really make more sense to have had the inspection today and save everyone the hassle in the morning. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clarification from the club on this would be useful. I think because it has been frosty the last couple of days. Covers can’t go down days before as it knackers the pitch. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaggy Snake Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 Even if we lose the rearranged match whenever it happens, the more important thing was just not falling 8 points behind while McCall is still trying to get things going and get a bit of confidence back in the team (and signings come January obviously). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
