Not surprisingly, it only needed a very brief pitch inspection to confirm that tonight's match is postponed because of a heavy covering of snow.
Saturday's game against Truro City has been re-arranged for Tuesday 12th March.

Only Eastleigh V Truro seems to have any chance of happening tonight - games at Dorchester, Dover and Welling all called off

" Followed swiftly by " Snow blizzard has forced City's coach to a standstill at Taunton. Game off. City turning round to return home! " Oops - Perhaps they should delete that first tweet!

With rain expected this weekend would it be wise to clear the pitch of the snow? Thawing snow and rain would mean the Tuesday game would be very doubtful .

I think I might go mad if the game on Tuesday is off. If we are going to clear the pitch of snow I'll try to find the time to help out

Heavy rain forecast for the w/e tonight. If so, waterlogged pitch. I think we could be in for an 85/6 style finish when the U's played Monday, Tues, Thurs (or was it Wed, Thurs) in their successful tilt for the IL title.

Just seen photos of GGL pitch. When that lot melts it will be very, very wet. Need some dry weather to be sure of getting the Eastleigh game on for sure.
