The pitch is perfectly fine as it was covered and it has been cleared to play on by the relevant match official person. I think Saints want to avoid a short turnaround for the Wigan match and I'm sure Salford feel similarly for their Good Friday game and so they are pressing ahead regardless. The snow isn't sticking at present but of course that could change. However, that wind is bloody freezing.

| I would not be overly concerned as most of St. Helens is flat. But if you have any kind of incline to get home, if the snow is falling you may look far more daft having to abandon your car on the way home. It's falling quite fast now in Leeds, I will definately be giving this one a miss.

Wise move. The M62 tonight will be horrendous.

3076_1671446335.jpg SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS
For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.
For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.
Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg |

| Did none of you ever go to Oldham or Halifax in the "good old days" of winter rugby. Today would be like a spring afternoon.

Everyone has been involved in the decision, it was decided to try and get the game on tonight to aid recovery for the players before the Easter weekend.
All that paraphrased from a Mike Rush interview on Sky Sports News in the last hour.
Hard to disagree with that to be honest, although you'd have to pay me to go. ![Smile icon_smile.gif](images/smilies//icon_smile.gif)

Yes but in those days, horse and cart had far more traction than most petrol engines.

| Quote: SaintsFan "I don't think there will be many people watching tonight. The snow is coming down thick and fast, and that wind is strong and freezing cold. I'm tempted not to go myself even though I'm a season ticket holder. It will be perishing in the West Stand.'"
We are season ticket holders and live on the moors North of Chorley about 3 - 4 inches of snow and deeper in places. There will be two spare seats in the North stand tonight. Stoves are fired up, wine is uncorked, curry in the slow cooker and radio tuned into radio merseyside

| Well, there's not many taken their seats so far!
They've just announced they're going to put everyone in the seated sections.

| Doesn't look any worse than the Castleford v ? match at the start of the season which was played in the snow.
Game should be played.

Still the case in Wigan isn't it?

| That was a complete joke tonight. The decision makers who allowed it to go ahead have no excuses, do they not have the sense to take a look at the forecast and think what it was going to be like in and out of the stadium. Sometimes I wonder how these people ever get these jobs they hold.
