Wouldn't have thought so, although it is a pain in the arse i can't see how the game can be called off a day before unless the pitch has 6ft of snow or its -15. I wouldnt like to call it at the moment to be honest.

I believe there is a pitch inspection in the morning at 9am, with the team meeting up at 10.30 to travel up on the strength that the weather will have no further effect on the pitch. So, if the pitch is okay in the morning, it will remain in a playable state for Saturday.

Bring it on

I'm on the phone to my mate and he reckons the weather up there is diabolical. If it is on he'll be very surprised as games have been called off with better weather/pitches

My worry is to drive up there and it be cancelled.
