N... ice!
On Friday, I arrived to the bitter cold of Blackpool and started to set up for televising the football in the shadow of the famous tower.
Imagine my delight at 3.30 when the referee declared the game suspended after scrutinising the pitch and declaring it as malleable as cast iron.
I found myself back home by 8pm, with a smile on my face and the prospect of an unexpected weekend off.
So today I am travelling up to 'FC United of Manchester', the forcast is for minus 7 degrees freezing fog and they don't have under pitch heating.
I love this weather!
*** EDIT *** the buggars have put the whole pitch under a heated tent!
