You're beginning to sound like Warnock.

Just this second logged on to send my best wishes from Loftus Road ( we got Norwich ) and I find County's game is off...
Hope people haven't been inconvenienced too much....
What time was it called off?

Glad i changed my mind at the last min about going to chesterfield, was ready to leave untill
I saw saw there was snow up there.
Looks like its the shit match on the radio for me then,

got as far as Worcester before I heard it was off

Myself and the Supporters club ended up going to see Kidderminster Harriers v Brackley, pitch was dry as a bone, nice little stadium, Harriers ended winning 2-1 in an Entertaining game , glad we made a day of it .

Got to St Pancras around 10am on a travel-card as didn't want to commit to paying the full fare just in case. Early Chesterfield twitter indicated snow so hung around St P for further news. Bought tickets on the basis of 'game will go ahead unless weather conditions significantly worsened' Chesterfield tweet. 20 mins after boarding the train at 11:58 am the Chesterfield tweet came up with pitch inspection/game off tweet which somewhat contradicted the 'game on' tweet one hour earlier ..
Anyway - diverted to Burton game which was OK. C'est la vie ..

Myself and doubtless a few others can't make the rescheduled match, I would also like to know how to get a ticket refund. I would be grateful if anybody could shed some light on this.
Chris

Thank you.

Officially, on Chesterfield's twitter, it was 1207. I know this because I arrived in Chesterfield at 1203. To say I am a tad narked to discover (today) that people knew 40 minutes before that, all of half an hour after Chesterfield said it would be on, is an understatement.

Not that we could have done anything about it anyway, being on the train. After the concert we were supposed to go to got postponed as well, I ended up having to buy additional tickets, write some off, then buy more to get home earlier because there wasn't 3 hours at a football ground in the middle.

Got to be honest, I have no idea why it wasn't on. Surprised how much snow there was in the town itself but it was rapidly disappearing even by noon, the snow on the pitch wasn't that bad from the photos I've seen either. If the grass in the rest of Chesterfield was anything to go by the pitch would be soft but not dangerous, and it was drizzling all day which got rid of most of the snow by 4pm when we left anyway.
