pas de probleme - clear the lines and job's a good 'un

Surely some of us that will be in Perpignan for the match could go and help them shift some snow if it means getting the match on?

I think that's what they're appealing for on the Catalans website.

It says something like

'come tomorrow morning from 8am to help clear the pitch and bring your own shovel'

Will they allow shovels on the plane?

A couple of translations from SDL and Google - take your pick (or shovel, rake etc)

The club of the Catalan Dragons calls upon all its supporters that can come to help the players and the Catalan staff to clear the snow from the lawn of the stadium Gilbert Brutus.

We invite all the voluntary persons to rejoin tomorrow morning, as early as 8H, in order to assure the good sequence of the encounter of Great League that will take place Saturday evening against the Castleford Tigers (if possible provide you of equipment: rateau, peels. ..).

The club Catalans Dragons uses all his fans who can come help the players and staff Catalan to plow the lawn of the Gilbert Brutus Stadium.

We invite everyone volunteers to join us tomorrow morning at 8am to ensure the smooth running of the meeting of Super League to be held Saturday night against Castleford Tigers (if you can Bring equipment: rake, shovel .. .).

rll’opération déneigementrl continues tomorrow

where are they going to put all the rest of the snow ? doesnt even look like they have moved 1/5 of the pitch and even if they do pile it up on the touchline surely that`s far too close to the pitch to be safe.

feel sorry for those going out to france/spain but im secretly hoping its off so i can get over their later in the year "very selfish of me "

anybody remember a cup game played at leeds in the early eighties when the pitch was like that think it was against an ameteure team in the challenge cup.

knowing our luck we'll go on a cup run, forcing the game to be played mid week or something like that. Hope the game is on for the sake of the travelling fans... Would people still go though, baring in mind no refund and just for a p1ss up?

Well we are going reguardless....praying it will be on. We we were hoping for it to be a bit warmer but i'll settle for the match to go ahead!

Ive held crisis talks with dad tonight and we are going regardless. Should be interesting!!!

Really really hope the game is on though, would be gutted if its not. Fingers crossed the effort so far and the warmer weather will help.

I've forked out for train tickets and two nights accomdation for a weekend in the south of France. It would be a shame to waste the money ...
