Beckford Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 This being off obviously allows Falkirk to really build momentum. Not great as we need to keep up with them and not sure that we have the mentality to do so if they open up a big gap. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Mcleod Posted January 6 Author Share Posted January 6 Not ideal at all. Surely the rearranged game will be played on the 20th as both teams are out of the Scottish Cup. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The loss of the TV money for this match and the obvious cancellation in hospitality tables will have been a sore one for the club today, especially when you consider the shambles of the game at Dumbarton last season, postponed about 84 times, which the club and supporters were rightly pissed off about. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dumb yatt Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 No winners when a game is postponed. After debacle with Dumbarton, this is a bitter pill. I am a simple punter and feel I should shoulder some responsibility. I could have contacted the club and asked about covers, rather than wait for a post on SM. Re hospitality, hasn't be cancelled in the past. So would imagine it went ahead as norm. Every day is a school day. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's distributed centrally through the prize money pool so usually your crowd will take a hit and you make less money. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shodwall cat Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 Why was the inspection left till less than an hour before kickoff. Seems ridiculous. I'd think most Hamilton fans would've left by then. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ye Olde Hamiltonian Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 Common sense is to reschedule this for Saturday 20th as both of us are out the Cup I think. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unitedbino Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 Surely this will go ahead? Now comfortably above freezing and to stay that way until 3pm tomorrow. Could waterlogging be more of an issue than the frost? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
