Potential threat from the weather to Saturday's match 12:05 - Nov 20 with 26386 views | MAK | 3 days away, but could there be a threat to the Oldham match on Saturday? It got to -4c last night and with 3 more sub zero nights to come, including Friday night, the grass will be getting a little solid. I addition to that a potent low pressure system swings in early on Saturday with the possibility of a couple of hours snow before it all turns very wet. A Met Office warning is out for that. Even if there's not much in the way of snow, a lot of rain falling onto frozen or semi frozen ground isn't going to drain away that fast. To add to that, there's increasing likelihood of snow overnight Thurs/Fri, and amounts will possibly be more than we had Mon/Tue. Anything that falls will hang around all Friday as the temps will just get above freezing. Fingers crossed it doesn't play out like that, but potential problems are there. Hopefully they are being dealt with. [Post edited 20 Nov 12:13]

Potential threat from the weather to Saturday's match on 22:17 - Nov 26 by downunder | Copied from an Oldham social media page. I thought he was joking, but then he bollocked me for laughing. "And I still can't figure out how West Bromwich Albion's ground in the Midlands is higher above sea level than Oldham Athletic's ground further north? Surely the more north you go the higher above sea level you are? it just doesn't make geographical sense." |
In fairness to the halfwit, you being ‘downunder ‘ may have flummoxed him. 😁 | | | |
