Apparently the Clach game might be on :laugh: (if the snow can be cleared from the pitch).

Not so ironic. It seems pretty much a fact that since we had to put under soil heating in to gain admission to the SPL that the drainage for our pitch has been poor. 

I wonder how much money clubs have had to waste through the years to accommodate the crazy musings of either our footballing authorities or a small collection of clubs only interested in preserving their position at the trough. 

Here's something else to muse on. We have had 2 weather related postponements this season - 1 at the start of December, the other at the end of January. Now ask yourself when the winter break is next season. 

The Scottish football authorities. Not fit to run a bath.

Well, these high-heid-yins apparently think summer football is not the answer to this atrocious weather and playing conditions  (yet to peak according to the pundits)  but may be paying lip service to the EVENTUAL modern marvel of twenty-first century electronics...video cameras monitoring the goal lines. Wheeeee!

When you consider the lost revenue, the dangers of injuries to players, the effect on performance of players due to freezing limbs, the reduced revenue from punters who would rather sit by the fire with the Beano or the Dandy, a cigar and a gillac, the risk of mistakes being greatly enhanced leading to unforeseen results on the park, the bookies who lose too much money as a result of "sure things" betting going awry and so on--how CAN you blame the bosses of Scottish Football for NOT seeing the light?

I mean, has anyone in power in Scottish football ever thought of 'phoning  the English-trained manager of the Vancouver Whitecaps to ask him what he thinks of summer football in North America?

Sorry, friends, all I can think of is ....OMG!

Cheers, back to the pipe and slippers then. Sigh.:redcard::wink:
