Big Col Posted March 17, 2013 Report Share Posted March 17, 2013 Just looked at the weather forecast for Cowdenbeath next couple of days and not looking good - snow forecast with freezing temperatures. I would imagine there will be early pitch inpsection(s). Surely there must be a rule that if a game is postponed a third time the tie can be switched to the other team's ground. Fast becoming a joke. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duke Gekantawa Posted March 17, 2013 Report Share Posted March 17, 2013 Frustrating, but not exactly their fault! Does look very doubtful though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guy Incognito Posted March 17, 2013 Report Share Posted March 17, 2013 Or even play it at a neutral venue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davie Thistle Posted March 18, 2013 Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 Ach bin sayin this for ages!! But who are we to say!! Bollox! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeanieD Posted March 18, 2013 Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 Maybe if it is postponed again the SFL should just let the score of the abandoned game stand? After all if Cowdenbeath are responsible for the weather than fair's fair? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Cup Posted March 18, 2013 Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 I am pretty sure Cowdenbeath don't even have covers for the pitch and they had to borrow St Johnstone's at one point. Even if the snow is clear the ground will still be brick hard. I would even doubt Morton's game there next weekend will be on. A total joke. The game should be moved if Cowdenbeath cannot guarantee to get it on. In the true sense of the word when it comes to things like this the SFA are completely retarded.

Watson Towers Posted March 18, 2013 Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 surely aff: http://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/2652207 I know we need to get these matches played, but selfishly as I am full of the flu I'm kinda hoping this, yet again, is a goner....

kni Posted March 18, 2013 Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 Or even play it at a neutral venue. Good idea. Does East End Park have undersoil heating? It would be the logical alternative. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P-R Posted March 18, 2013 Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 Anyone remember us having a game against Dundee Utd postponed at least 5 times because of a waterlogged pitch? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
