promised land Posted 18 January 2013 Posted 18 January 2013 I reckon there gonna call it off. If it keeps on like this around the ground will be a no no. Game to be cancelled in my opinion due to health and safety. Tell me you're not serious? It has been attempting to snow since 10am and I can quite clearly see my slabs through it still. It is nothing this feeble stuff dropping now, we'd need a big snowstorm to call it off. Someone has said it is all gritted around the ground, Ladbrokes man where is that picture! GAME ON

GAME ON I totally agree with you. However the Health and safety numpties might see otherwise.
ealingfox Posted 18 January 2013 Posted 18 January 2013 If the game gets called off anyone fancy a shag? These are getting really boring now.
supernuk Posted 18 January 2013 Posted 18 January 2013 Health and safety, deary me if they call off football match, they should corner off every shopping centre, station in the country.
blueharmie Posted 18 January 2013 Posted 18 January 2013 These are getting really boring now. Wait till u see the size of his Johnson mate.
dayday Posted 18 January 2013 Posted 18 January 2013 My Mrs has phoned up for a refund as the roads are bad are way....and they said unless we get to Leicester before 3.00.we have no chance of a refund.
isaidno Posted 18 January 2013 Posted 18 January 2013 I work about 2 minutes away. Yes, the main roads are clear, but a lot of people park on side streets away from the ground which won't have been gritted
kingfox Posted 18 January 2013 Posted 18 January 2013 TBH this is the worst I've seen the snow for a while, living off Narborough Road as well only 20-25 mins walking distance to the ground, it's getting quite deep. Not coming down heavy, but there is quite a bit building up.
MrSpaM Posted 18 January 2013 Posted 18 January 2013 I reckon weather forecaster try to frighten the sh1t out of everyone nowadays, so if they say 'light snow' it ain't gonna be heavy. Around the ground, roads and paths, are only ever a problem if there is packed ice which can be dangerous - there is no compacted snow, ( ice ), and everywhere is being gritted, so there won't be any. Only other possible concern could be inside the ground, which will not happen because the club will make sure everything is OK. The match will be on. The only potential problem would be if all the weathers forecasts have got it badly wrong and we get a really heavy blizzardy snowfall. That ain't gonna happen 'cos where the weather has been coming from ( South West, Somerset ) the snow stopped an hour or two ago, and they did not have it as bad as the forecasters prophesised. Game on! I take it you dont live in town then?, seriously if this carrys on for another couple of hours there is a good chance it'l be called off. Its much worse than it was this morning.

Game on! I am only 60 miles away and it has snowed for 22 hours non-stop. It has mainly been light snow but it builds up pretty quickly when it is cold enough,

K1FOX Posted 18 January 2013 Posted 18 January 2013 Just met Nigel in the fan store! He said if it carries on snowing like this till kick off then it'll probs be off. It's pretty much clear around the ground though! Very well gritted.
Leicesterpool Posted 18 January 2013 Posted 18 January 2013 Well not sure if able to go because, I live a couple of miles from the train staton, it's dangerous to walk in, the buses aren't running, plus the taxi service isn't running either. So I'm almost snowed in! Myself to others I would advise not going because it seems likely to be called off, even if it is on it will be dangerous to walk in. We get sent home in college today and it normally takes me 30 minutes to get home, took me nearly a hour! because at the time the buses were being restricted to certain routes.
Ozwin Posted 18 January 2013 Posted 18 January 2013 I'll just walk down. Getting some naaaasty flashbacks of Ipswich away though. It's not going to suit us one bit.

Yes, the main roads are clear, but a lot of people park on side streets away from the ground which won't have been gritted cant people just take extra time to walk carefully
stix Posted 18 January 2013 Posted 18 January 2013 I'll just walk down. Getting some naaaasty flashbacks of Ipswich away though. It's not going to suit us one bit. Get yourself in the NBA thread i wanna know what it was like lastnight!

Take your cotton wool suit off and get on with it.
Corky Posted 18 January 2013 Posted 18 January 2013 There leaving it late to call it off It shouldn't be such an issue, as probably the fans who go will be local. The ones who live further away won't risk it, as getting back could be treacherous.
kingfox Posted 18 January 2013 Posted 18 January 2013 Simon Thomas â€@SimonThomasSky 6 miles in 90 mins. Excellent start! #LCFC v #MFC#FootballLeagueTour #theremaybetroubleaheadhttp:// Of course he is doing the game tonight, Middlesbrough fans will have to travel further than him. I know Sky are saying it will probably be on, but this is the worst I've seen it for a while, if this doesn't stop before 7.00 then I believe it may be off.
davieG Posted 18 January 2013 Posted 18 January 2013 Outside my house in Glenfield snowing quite heavily now but you can still see the kerb edge although by 9.45 tonight it may look different, I guess it depends how many side rounds you have to drive down to get to the gritted roads and where you end up parking. One bump and the cost of the match will have rocketed.
Bilbo Posted 18 January 2013 Posted 18 January 2013 Jesus you call this snow, seriously some people need to wake up, this is snow.
