Game OFF!

Post by Olly »

Bit nervous now, really would hate it if we lost this one, I love having a game on Boxing Day to go to especially such a big one like this. I'm not interested in staying at home all day :(

Though according to BBC weather, the temperature in Oxford is 6 at the moment so that's good news.

I will be really gutted if the game is called off :( I have been really looking forward to it for the past few days.

At least we know Oxford will be doing their upmost to get the game on as they are expecting a bumper crowd!

Second inspection at 1. Bollocks. I'll have left by then.

Think most of us will have by then but I think that's good really, gives the pitch another hour and a half to thaw out and with it apparently being 8 degrees and sunny by the afternoon in Oxford, I really can't see how it'll still be frozen by 1pm, so it should be ok I'd say.

well i'll nearly be there by then.....going that way anyway so not that much bother.

Will probably mean less of us go though if theres a chance there might not be a game to watch when they get there.

Condtions are improving though and it is expected to rise to 8oC there soon.

Apparently a local ref has said it is currently marginal to OK, and he has no doubts it will be ok by 1.
