Watford game...

Recommended Posts

Posted

Just wondering.....what's the likely hood that Saturday's game will be called off (I.e) how have Watford coped with the snow in recent years?? Don't know if anyone will actually know the answer to this but you never know. Living in London I can say that down South we've only recently been affected by the snow and it's come down thick n fast :/

I'm in the south East but its stopped over the last hour or so, I kinda meant it came down over a short period. I live nearer to Kent then South London.

Kent has had it bad

Things are all clear in the centre but every forecast seems to differ.

Metcheck reckons light snow and -4 in watford saturday morning

BBC reckons it will be +1

Theres no snow on the Friday before the game if that helps :dunno:

London isn't getting much snow at the moment. East London has had the most, but it's nothing compared to what the north (Sheffield etc) are getting.

If the game will be called off it will probably be due to surrounding areas of the stadium being unsafe due to ice/slippery surfaces etc, but even that's at a stretch.

They have undersoil heating so the pitch should be fine.

I'm working in Hemel Hempstead this week (about 7 or 8 miles from Watford) and it snowed pretty heavily on Monday night.

No snow since, but the highest temperature has been -1 for the last couple of days, so I hope they have undersoil heating.

i drove through watford this morning and it was near enough clear of snow, no problems at all, and as far as i know there not expecting any significant snow falls before sat. so all should be well. :scarf:

i can safely vouch for this as im just a few miles from sheffield and the snow is deep as fook (fact i 4got the dip in my garden didnt help when wading through it and i dissappeard!) :blush:

if watford has half of what we got and its still snowing then i would say b called off

3 games in the championship already called off :

Doncaster v Barnsley

Portsmouth v Burnley

Sheffield Utd v Reading

Blades and doncaster games were always gonna be called off. Snow's fooking ridiculous in sheffield, pushing 2 feet, no joke.

Hoping ours goes ahead, looking forward to each game more and more :scarf:

HORNETS VERY CONFIDENT ABOUT SATURDAY

Thu 02 Dec 2010

THE Hornets are keen to confirm that there are no immediate concerns about Saturday's game against Leicester City at Vicarage Road.

There is a light covering of snow on the pitch, however it is frost-free thanks to the careful use throughout the week of the stadium's undersoil heating.

"The forecast suggests we've already had any snowfall of significance," indicated the club's Head of Operations Glyn Evans this (Thursday) morning.

"Right now, the area around the ground and town itself hasn't suffered with significant snowfall so we're very, very confident."
