    Are we using a local referee or the official match referee for this inspection?

    After two nights of -9.7 and -9.6, here, just outside Stafford, we've had a relatively balmy -5.5 last night. Temperature now rising and has just reached zero for the first time in 3 days.

    Oh the weather outside is frightful;
    But the beer inside is delightful;
    And as I've nowhere to go;
    Let it flow, let it flow, let it flow.

    Well when I drove past the ground at 2am it was clear with the lights beaming through the stadium that they were doing everything they can to get the game on but the conditions on the roads and paths were shocking.

    Assuming it is on, pressure is building on Hughes (I'm not in any way advocating Hughes goes, for reference) to get a positive response and result today. Rochdale have lost 7 in 9 and lost to Harrogate 4-1 at home last week.


    The outdoors weather is not our greatest concern.

    Edit... The game is off

    Hardly surprising decision.

    Shocking we’re the last one to call it off

    It makes sense we were the last ones to call it off, with the least travel time for the opponents

    It actually says large areas were playable which seems a bit strange.

    Not much hope with a ref from London, it will be far too cold for him.
