Match On - Just updated per Needham Market. They don't get much shadow on the pitch I guess. At HR the areas in sun are ok at lunchtime. Just large strip nearside in permanent shadow this time of year.

It’s foggy till 11am . Then the really warm (sarcastic) December sun will come out .

Do we have a refs option? Or just the chairman looking out his window

Always assume on until the local groundsman & officials update. The local groundsman knows the pitch best.

I'm wondering if they didn't listen to the groundsman as they'd know the areas that would be frozen. Any part of goal area a ref unlikely to approve.

Feel sorry for all those who travelled, nothing worse than getting a game called of at the ground. Remember Macclesfield and Mansfield as 2 examples. I was very surprised that it was given as on and decided not to go as I really couldn’t see it going ahead.
