Nearly all of the games played are further south though.
The exception is Bolton (who presumably have undersoil heating from their PL days)
Alfreton is on the edge of the peak district/pennines too. A few hundred feet in altitude can make a difference to ground temperatures.
Indeed it was! I didn’t realise that.
So just our game then. Early kick off, poor facilities will have played a part too, before the overly defensive lot jump on accusing me of making Sadler out to be a murder.
Didn’t quite get their quick enough did I 
I did point that out myself earlier on in this thread also.
The point is you’d have called them all off if you are just looking at a temperature from last night.
Outside the Bull ring mate 
Well we just have to disagree. I think before and during games the team and staff deserve support no matter how bleak things may appear. I went to a lot of away matches when younger when we went on long runs where we were poor. The attitude in those days was “gallows humour” rather than hostility.
No, I’ve read your post above now 
It was obviously borderline, given Alfreton’s confidence earlier in the morning.
Ultimately, it’s the referee’s decision.
I am not going to question that, I was sat in front of my TV, not at the game!
They weren’t kicking off at 12.30 and many will have more ‘robust’ anti-frost measures 
If we had been 3 o’clock it might have been playable
Feel for those of you who travelled. Fans seem to get zero consideration in these situations.
When I hear comments like this, I just put my head in my hands.
It’s like “I can’t think of anything else to say so I’ll just say something irrelevant and stupid”.
I implore you to get behind the club and stop being silly. It’s not big and it’s not clever
Depending on when they rearrange it for, and whether we also need a replay (with the Christmas schedule and typical bad weather we get around now making that hard to get done before January), we might even make the 4th round draw! 
Yeah, it makes you wonder what’s up with some of ‘em.
So depressed, cynical, bitter, negative.
Football’s a great game, there to be enjoyed, but some fans just want to carp on and on and on about stupid irrelevancies.
I don’t usually post much either - you can’t win against this lot.
And i implore you to accept and appreciate that other fans are going to have differing opinions to yours , you have differing opinions to me but in my eyes it doesnt make you any less of a fan and i wont ridicule you for it , you need to try it sometime rather than thinking your the only one that matters , your just showing yourself now as being a silly billy 
Maidstone beating Barrow
That’s true, although your 4th post on the forum was this ditty…
Not very supportive I might say
Oh my oh my @CatKearns look whats just been unveiled 
hmmmmmmmmm 
someone full of porkie pies
As I posted previously (whilst in the act of leaving the ground), when I spoke to a steward (about what had happened with their supposed fool-proof plan of covers and hot air blowers), he told me that because of the electronic boards they’d had to put around the pitch due to it being on telly they were unable to fit their usual anti-frost dome over the pitch properly. So blame TV and the money filthy lucre Alfreton took from them to switch to an early kick off and not be able to take proper precautions.
Why didn’t the referee inspect the pitch first thing this morning? With the temperature not rising much above zero? If it was unplayable then, it would be unplayable at kick-off. Or was it Alfreton that told the official it was all OK?
Anyway, we had a league game called off and went up a place, we have a cup game postponed and we are into the 3rd Round draw.
You are off your rocker
Have you been following Walsall closely the last few years and experiencing what we are.
Glad you are loving it 
apart from the bit under Flynn.
Maybe Cat is Mat Sadler 
Hes just been shown up to be trolling scrolling back through his previous posts
