Saturdays Game off?

Noel Hunt thinks it will be off http://twitter.com/boyhunt

Is that his real Twitter though? I didn't realise he was back in full training again

Just for the record, for all those who can't be bothered to read 4 pages, the thought is that the game on Saturday is likely to be called off as although the pitch maybe clear its just too iffy to allow 22000+ people to try get to the game safely.

This view is, of course, only the fans view and the club has yet to make a statement, therefore the game is still officially ON at this point in time.

Saturday's game is more off than a month old bottle of milk sat on the doorstep of a flat occupied by the festering corpse of an undiscovered pensioner.

Just heard from a Toon m8 (itk) that Newcastle Police spotters have been stood down too, so looking increasingly doubtful - still nothing officially confirmed, though.

Pity

[engage full-on selfish mode] Good - couldn't make it and a midweek game later in the season will be fun [switch off selfish mode]

[M-U-R-T-Y]

Watford vs. Sheffield United off. Not looking good

I go back to uni on the 1st Feb.

Yeah it is his official Twitter.

Games beginning to go - Sheff Wed have just called off their game as the conditions to get to the ground are not safe.

if they have machines out there t5o clear pathways, surely it must go ahead

[phil in cornwall]

They need to make their minds up soon.

Newcastle fans are probably setting out today if they aren't on the road already.

Its a long journey but I don't think too many will be on the road already

If this gets moved to mid-week I almost certainly won't be able to make it. DAMN YOU WEATHER!!!

Arsenal's game against Bolton was not called off until 4pm for a 7.45 or 8 kick-off. The Bolton team were in their London hotel at the time. Pitch totally playable, but environs dangerous plus the problem of getting 60,000 people home.

The lateness of the decision means that it could happen here too.

MATCH POSTPONED.

Not on RFC website yet if it is!

A mutual source within the club has confirmed that the match is postponed pending confirmation from the League HQ. I can send you the email if you like?

Don't worry - I personally believe it's off from my own sources, but just pointing out that it's not *officially*off yet.

Great

[readingbedding]

Surprised?

[Kitson12]

No, but would rather be watching the game than sitting at home on Saturday.
Plus, apparently a frozen pitch is partly to blame for the postponement, according to SSN.
