    The hard part is getting the white stuff off the pitch! I had to ‘dig’ out two cars this evening and that was a lot of snow. The good thing about the current predicament is that the state of the surrounding streets etc won’t play any decision.
    Exactly! You ever tried shifting a foot of snow off a football pitch? 😂

    The good thing there is we now have three teams at least three wins behind us.It certainly gives us extra insurance and dare i say it the incentive to be brave and play for three points rather than one in certain games.
    I do not mean going to Ibrox and playing with gay abandon but we really should be going for win's against a failing Aberdeen side and any other side below them.

    The whole of Scotland could have problems on Saturday as the weather switches to coming in from the Atlantic,good news as its warmer but bad news that its bringing in a front that will lead to more snow as it bumps into the colder air sitting over the whole country.
    At the moment the West has escaped the worst but there maybe postponements this weekend if the forecast is correct.

    Wouldn’t surprise me if the Scottish Cup got cancelled. Following Covid, this was the one year we wanted reasonable weather but instead we’ve got a fixture pile up developing which will be added to on Saturday as there will be more postponements (probably including ourselves).

    With it being as much as that mate i take it transport would be required to remove the snow?.If i'm correct this along with our undersoil heating would require money being spent and as we all know its unlikely the owner will sanction that.

    The latest forecast i have seen now is the east will escape the snow on Saturday but although we will get bad weather on Sunday its more likely to be rain or sleet as the country slowly starts to warm up.The temperatures next week are up to between 7 and 9c.
    It may well snow in the west but they are saying its more likely to be lighter than what we have endured earlier this week.

    The establishment club's will fight this like phuck mate,The Rangers are hungry for silver,the Jambos want to show the country they are Premiership in all but name and the Dees having taken care of Bonnyrigg Rose and unbeaten at home for a very long time are saying,"This is our year."

    Could be another ‘first’ for the city’s Establishment Club GB. Go the entire year unbeaten yet still not break the 111 (ONE HUNDRED AND ELEVEN) year hoodoo. Remarkable.

    Mini tractor with a plough on the front mate. Both of which we have I'm sure. They'd likely take it down to an inch or two then hope the undersoil heating melted the rest. We'd be left with one very soggy pitch though.
