Big problem round here now is falling icicles. If they have any of them on the stadium roof then there is no way the game can be allowed to go ahead.
The icicles, that's a joke right?
No. We have had them off the back of the house all day. The snow is slowly thawing off roofs around here and they are becoming a problem.

Get the gritters out and get the game on. Win and we will be top 4 and there to stay.
But your roof has is heated creating a constant supply of water allowing icicles to form.mackenzie said:Marvin said:Still well above freezing in Mcr.

Fair enough. Never heard of that at football, but if ice can form on a bridge it can form on a roofCorky said:The icicles danger shut the severn bridge a few years ago.

Z turnstyle at the Stoke game was closed forexactly this reason.
I am sure though there will be plenty of available turnstyles that will be usable.

do you know whether it is potentially a problem inside the ground with icicles forming on the inside edge of the roof?

Sorry mate couldnt tell you, my stand manager has texted me this afternoon expecting the game to be on, unless a heavy snowfall takes place

Its down to the angle of the dangle.
The roof sweeps down to the outside of the stadium, pitchside it doesnt sweep downwards the same way, dont see this as a problem

bbc weather indicates that we may be lucky and just catch the back edge of it, as the majority of it is due to hit the pennines. I've run it the forecast through the night and tomorrow and fingers crossed we may get lucky. In Bolton the sky looks full of the shit but here's hoping...<a class="postlink" href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/weather/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://news.bbc.co.uk/weather/</a>
