    With the wind blowing as it has for last couple of days I wouldn’t be surprised if they were using the sprinklers when we get there tonight

    So we are blaming the referee again for us giving away a 2 goal start? It’s tedious

    No, I was with family in London on Boxing Day. Hoping to go tonight but starting to feel like I might be going down with something so I’ll see how I feel later. If not, it’ll be iPlayer.

    I haven't read anyone blaming the referee for us not winning. Just posters suggesting his performances, for both sides, was crap. Which imo is probably giving him too much credit.

    I don’t need Xmas to spend what I want. Don’t like the reply…?

    Don’t ask is a good old motto!

    I literally am. Old age is making me desire football be a summer sport.

    I won’t. As I’ve already explained, Saturday games are most annoying when postponed.
    This game being off just means it moves to another random Tues night in February.

    My lad got some new boots for Xmas and I promised him Id take him to the park today to test them out. Feared it would be a mud bath but it wasn’t actually that bad, despite the wind and rain coming down!

    if Harold Park can take the rain I’m sure VP with proper drainage and proper grass coverage can!

    will be a heavy night for the lads though, as ever on wet pitches. Hammys will be feeling tight later.

    Having good options off the bench could be key late in the game to freshen things up.
