for anyone thinking of going apparently there is a 1pm pitch inspection - heard they have only managed to play twice at home since start of November!

Pitch inspection tomorrow at 1pm. Sounds a bit of a formality !

"It will take an Army to clear the snow. The car park is also covered and the driveway into the ground is very dangerous. I'm told we will still have to have a pitch inspection crazily enough"

 

[stickyboy]

no real surprise, based on what I heard about there pitch reckon it will end up at Roots Hall anyway

Yeah I had that thought this morning!

Colchester did that when they played Brentford after that game was called off 3 times

Brentwood - they wouldn't have put 8 goals past Brentford !!!

That will not please all the 'hoppers' that have never seen us play at Waltham Abbey.

 

[Mick]

Off !!

It was either going to be snow covered or waterlogged !

They're having another go next Tuesday 29th January.

Probably be called off due to a plague of locusts this time

Waltham Abbey are holding a 1pm pitch inspection today.Be good if they can get the game on,give a few of our fringe players a run out.With rain we have had and previous problems with their pitch must be doubtful.

 

[jack the shrimper]

Surely if it's postponed again, they'll have to consider playing the game at Roots Hall?

 

[stickyboy]

been called off a few times already, should have just had at at Roots Hall tonite instead

That would be better really.I watched Waltham Abbey play at Maldon couple weeks ago and got talking too a fella whos son plays for Abbey,he said it should have been switched and that it gets waterlogged very easily.Eton Manor also play there so that dont help matters.

Think they have only managed 1 home game since 10 November as pitch so bad!

Yes i think thats right.They are goin have a massive fixture backlog! Players of Abbey would much rather play at Roots Hall.
