    Yes Steve, the away club can claim for associated costs such as travel and the hotel I believe.

    Added incentive for FGR if the game goes ahead. A win will take them out of the relegation places.

    According to Google it is 198 miles and a 3 hour 41 minute drive. So say a 49 minute delay due to traffic and a lunch break of 1 hour, a 5 hour 30 minute journey. Set off at 10.00 a.m. and they could be at Valley Parade for 3.30 pm. No need whatsoever to travel up the night before and if they do, they can pay for their own yurt at the local glamping compound.

    Cheers NM. Pity they cannot also claim basic travel expenses for the fans who made the journey, would kind of soften the blow somewhat

    Do what I have started doing recently Kev...tell her to have a lovely time doing it :joy:

    My days of saying "how high" every time the wife tells me to jump (in DIY terms that is) are well & truly over. It'll get done when I get motivated enough to get round to it

    No rain. We have just had a glimpse of a round yellow thing in the sky.

    Only just stopped ROFL from this to be able to post a reply 2 days later. I hope we have a clause that means he must play against us. Cracking lad, awful footballer.

    PITCH UPDATE: CITY v FGR
    Just now

    1038 views



    Bradford City AFC has issued the following pitch update ahead of this evening's scheduled visit of Forest Green Rovers (7.45pm).

    The University of Bradford Stadium pitch continues to drain the rain which fell this morning.

    With drier conditions forecast this afternoon, and groundstaff working hard to ensure it is playable, we are confident that this evening’s fixture can go ahead as planned.

    Tonight's match referee, Simon Mather, will be arriving at Valley Parade at 4.00pm, as a precaution, to inspect the pitch.

    We will endeavour to keep supporters updated on the status of the fixture throughout the course of the day.
