It’s currently snowing in Bolton (apparently) and is forecast to continue until tomorrow at least. Could the game get called off? I certainly hope it doesn’t as this seems a good time to play them with us in form and them having a bit of a wobble and a few injuries atm although they’ve had more rest than us with no midweek fixture. |  |

Not sure if it’ll get called off but I’m sure we’ll have a thread every hour about it maybe getting called off

We've had a bit of snow here in Manchester this morning, but its not settling. I think up in the hills, might be a bit worse, but I don't think there's any threat to the game. |  |

I did think this too but a Google search suggests they have undersoil heating so it should be fine. |  |

I would imagine most of their facilities are better than ours considering they were in the the prem a long time after we last were. I suspect the main issue - if there will be one - is what the access to the ground is like for fans, if it's icy it could be called off for safety reasons if routes to the ground are dangerous. |  | | |

Although typical of the changeable weather at the moment, I wouldn't be surprised if we ended up with four seasons in one day on Saturday. | | | |

Just arrived in Blackpool. Bit of sleet no snow. Forecast for Saturday looks ok.

Motorway traffic cams are an easy way to research , thus avoiding this type of post. |  |

As I posted on an earlier thread, BWFC have undersoil heating, and do not anticipate any issues with game going ahead. | | | |

Sleet and rain with poor visibility at 3pm on Saturday. Not conditions to suit our style of play unfortunately. |  |

Just looked out of my window in the lancashire region You'll need skis and ice picks to get anywhere near the ground. | | | |

Good luck to anyone attempting to survive Saturday - one of the already bleakest grounds in football will the pretty grim for spectators. I’m convinced it creates its own microclimate. It’s cold and windy in there in the middle of a heatwave. Put your woollen undies on |  |

BBC forecast for Bolton for the rest of today (tomorrow is similar)
Game would be on, you'd imagine, as they have undersoil heating.
Don't know if Barnsley do....

Pretty sure the police / Highways Agency advice for that area is not to travel unless it’s absolutely necessary. That kind of suggests 2k people travelling to the area from Suffolk for a game of football is not a necessary journey. Can the police / HA influence a postponement? | | | |

That's today though. They won't call the game off today if there's a chance it's ok tomorrow | |

The snow is weak and will vanish by 10:38am
The ice and frost tonight is the bigger problem as it's -6 |  |

Not looking forward to driving through Beattock Summit. My car had to go into the garage today so driving the wife’s MX -5 down, which weighs less than a tin of sardines. [Post edited 10 Mar 2023 9:01]

Same for both teams, let’s not cry this one off like Oxford, and adapt accordingly |  |
