As the decision regarding the state of the pitch is down to the match referee and, out of the last three games, two decided it was playable and one didn't, at what point do the club get the pitch inspected by the referee appointed for Tuesday to decide whether, in his opinion, the game can go ahead. Do they get a local referee who comes to a different decision. Don't leave it until 90 minutes before the kickoff when the match referee arrives. |  | | |  |

I'd agree that the first inspection of the pitch isn't left until around 6pm. It would also be wise to have the option of an earlier look at it. I don't know how that would work.
Unfortunately, the weather forecast yet again doesn't appear to be doing us any favours on match day. Mostly dry up until Tuesday, but Tuesday looks to be a day with potentially prolonged light rain. Hopefully it doesn't hang around too long, but only small amounts cause huge problems to certain areas of the pitch. We don't get any luck at all as for several days either side of Tuesday, the weather is fine. |  | | |

As reported at the Fans Forum, more extensive rain covers will be deployed which should offset anything but prolonged, heavy rain. Still, you never know... |  |

A lot of winter still to come, medium term forecast looking like cold is going to be more of a problem than rain as we go through February.
The comment in the last pitch update that the weather will naturally improve is a bit optimistic at best. | | | |

Lets face it this is Rochdale. We could have rain most Saturday's and Tuesday's every month till the end of the season. |  |

There about 400 seats still available - but they'll go fairly quickly I would think. Lets hope we can sell out and have a decent atmosphere. | | | |

Anyone else think this is really impressive? Never crossed my mind we’d sell out the Sandy or get near to selling out the seats. |  |

That might fill a taxi but not the Sandy.
It’s impressive but not if it’s been infiltrated by BIFFOs. | | | |

Of course it has to be put into perspective given the poor reputation of the visitors... there are blocks around the ground not for sale. The end blocks of the mainstand and the scoreboard end of Pearl Street aren't on sale. They'll block off part of the Wilbutts too. | | | |

Thoroughly depressing that Oldham fans can’t behave themselves depriving both us of income and more of their supporters not being able to see a local derby. Absolute knuckle draggers who need to go back to the Stone Age. |  |

Why would any section of the main stand not be on sale?
Just asking in general, if this is true [Post edited 2 Feb 18:36]

Local derbies always bring out the worst of supporters wouldn’t just call all Oldham fans. Happens at other clubs. Still don’t like them but just as passionate about there club as any other team like we are passionate about the mighty Dale [Post edited 2 Feb 18:47]

right then so onto Tuesday night game. Hopefully on as I’ll be coming down from hull to watch the game. Genuinely think we can beat them. McNulty showing he can play good football whilst also getting results. As for Oldham been very weak as of late so the postponement has worked in our favour and I feel we are playing them at a good time. Hopefully kairo can bag. Only thing I am worried about it Mike fondop for them. Real threat in front of goal and in good form. Will be a handful to contain him but I feel like our defence has been solid as of recent. All in all feel like it will be a thrilling game as per and a passionate one as usual. Hopefully not too much happening off the pitch and it all happens on it (football) come on Dale !!! | | | |

Do you think if you keep saying you don't like them that people will start to believe your nonsense? | |

I was going to ask the same, I’d guess these seats have been blanked out due to being sold for hospitality, that’s where you are seated when you do the hospitality days. |  |
