    Personally I love midweek games, regardless of weather

    If it is going to be nippy, a few layers with a thick jumper and coat and some thick socks on, small flask of coffee, under the floodlights. Bring it on

    It's strange how all these examples of people it makes no difference to are those that are generally in favour of watching at home when possible.

    Despite the fact they would absolutely be scrambling for tickets for any midweek playoff or huge cup games.

    You can't have been to many night games if you only attend on a warm night.

    Did you listen to the Arsenal and Villa games on the wireless then back in 2013?

    Personally I like having the choice.
    I have a season ticket and attend most home games, but if I choose to watch on ifollow for whatever the reason, it’s nobody’s business but mine and the person I usually attend with

    Personally I am looking forward to the game and intend to go.

    However advising @JudgeMental@JudgeMental to get in touch with the club, seems a bit narrow.

    Surely the club could as @Dratsab taf@Dratsab taf suggested put out a simple message.

    As the saying goes it isn’t ‘rocket science’ and if the club do it they will communicate with a far greater number of Supporters.

    Supporters who are located further away; @StaffordBantam@StaffordBantam and @Park bantam@Park bantam for example have much further to travel and need to set off quite early to get to the ground in time.

    The cancellation of the original game was left very late, compared to all the other fixtures postponed that day. The last one to do so if my memory is correct.

    The club has a far better understanding of the situation than the supporters.

    No one is saying it is anybody's business. I'm suggesting it would damage the attendances, which it will.

    Success on the pitch will have a far greater effect on attendances. If the team is doing well then supporters will attend whatever the weather

    If you want to pretend you've ended the discussion, you can do, but you haven't.

    Storm in a teacup, that's all it is.

    Unless it rains. No one wants to watch us against Man city in the PL if it's raining.

    Apparently we'll all stay at home and watch it on TV.

    Very mild now and a bit of drizzle-no reason not to attend tonight's game.
