It's times like these, they need to put the Undersoil Heating on! They will make enough to use it on Boxing Day with the Ticket Sales.

Only the prem and half the Championship have undersoil heating.

Regardless of the pitch, i went down to NP and they're going to have to go some to shift the snow and ice around the ground, it took me ten minutes to get out the car park my car was skidding so much.

Undersoil heating costs a fair whack to operate, which is why only Premier League/Championship teams actually use it.

U/S heating costs on average around 750k to install. That's more than KC paid for the club...

I was watching some egg chasing last weekend cos all the football was cancelled on sunday and it was London Wasps who groundshare with Wycombe. They have undersoil heating and they said on the tele it costs £100 an hour to run
