Your having a laugh right.

Over here at the BRI it has been non stop snow for over a hour now. The roads are starting to choke I see.

Bad news for Sundays game.

been raining on Rooley lane for last 2hrs. Just turned to snow now. Snow not lying on ground

Maybe it's heading over from the BRI to Odsal as we speak.

Still snowing here and it's sticking to the roads Im afraid.

For what it's worth if the Hull KR game is called off, that would mean, game, week off, week off, week off, game.

Not the best way to start the season.

RFL should tell Manly to f**k off

maybe the bulls could kidnap the manly team and play the friendly for them?

Maybe it went somewhere else first to get its mates, and then decided to head for Odsal.

Snow by itself is [iSOOOO[/i yesterday. It needs some thick fog & hail if we are going to take it seriously.

Any advance on the earlier news?

Just seen a picture of the odsal pitch on look north and it looks very very white!
Are there covers on? What kind of state is the pitch in?
I really really hope we don't lose another week!!!

they'll leave clearing the pitch as long as possible as the snow actually protects the pitch. Someone mentioned they'd been to odsal earlier in week and groundsman said the pitch was fine under the snow. The terraces will be the problem, but as others have said rooley end is clearin nicely on its own so the've only got pop side to do. I'd imagine worst case is they clear as much as possible and close off worst sections. Can't see us needing full capacity first game of season even if Kr do bring a decent amount over.

you dont half go over the top mick. I work just the other side of the hill from the BRI and there was some sleety snow for about an hour 11-12ish this morning, which if anything only helped to wash away the remaining snow in cottingley.

Forecast: Light snow this evening, dry tomorrow, light rain Saturday, light rain and a balmy 8C Sunday. Game on.....hopefully

Have to say I'd be happier if there was something from the club regarding the fixture. Just a quick press release of a website update. Just to put my mind at rest about the game being on or not

Yes would be useful for us too. I've got a ticket but my daughter couldn't get a swap so will be hoping to swap on the day, if part of the ground is cordoned off would this reduce the capacity greatly?

I've just been up to Odsal and spoke to Stuart Duffy who's extremely confident that the game will go ahead. The snow is starting to be cleared from the pitch. The Rooley lane terracing is completely clear of snow and they have started on the popular side. The car park is also being cleared of snow.

I took some photo's I'll add them when I get a chance.

You could get some heavy snow coming down though.. my local news showed where the snow will be moving to and it moving southwards and looks to be hitting leeds so would expect it to get you too.. although i don't mind if it wishes to just stay here cause i'll make it home as i'm below where the A66 closes! I woke up to about an inch two hours ago.. its now at least two inches.
