HMFC86 Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 According to bbc weather the wind is meant to drop to 40mph by 8pm.

Japan Jambo Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 Question on BBC Scotland feed for us exiled down south. I believe this is the story for those with Freeview; * I can get it on the iPlayer * If I retune my TV having fed it a Scottish postcode I can get it was hoping I could watch on the big screen rather that on the computer without the pfaff of a retune, anyone know different?

It's been mentioned we are getting used to a new style, so why not use another game as an opportunity to get more experience in this new way of playing? We don't have that much time to get it clicking! Some are saying forget the cup, concentrate on the league, so why not use it to get our players up to speed? Tora, Tora, ****ing Tora! Well exactly!

I'm not convinced the rain and wind will cause the game to be postponed. However, when you look at the weather warnings in place one thing it does say is there may be power loss for short periods, so I guess it is possible the floodlights might go down for a few minutes.

I agree. The game will go ahead, but I think it will be a shambles to be fair. I’ve been to games at that shithole before where even a tiny gust of wind removes any chance of skilled football being played. Add in the effects of a plastic pitch covered in surface water (depending on the quality of the drainage) and happy days. It’s one of the worst places to play football on a nice day.

Stuart McNeill Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 This is the type of game it would be best having the youngsters on. I'd imagine they would be more accustomed to the plastic pitches. Additionally, we should be beating championships teams easily and we don't want any injuries to important team players in this relegation battle we are in.
