Re: Snow Clearing - volunteers required

I don't think all the efforts to clear the snow were wasted, Tuesdays game will almost definitely be on.
Here are a couple of photos of the iceberg as of this morning, it's a bit smaller, but it was about 12 feet high last night.

Re: Snow Clearing - volunteers required

definately not wasted efforts mate, if that lot i saw last 2 days had remained on pitch, would not be any chance of a game in next 7/10 days IMHO. just a shame there was no reward fer the efforts. THANK YOU BRITISH WEATHER.

It is sometimes the little things that make the difference!!


Stanley v Rotherham
Saturday 16th Jan 2010


Match off - waterlogged pitch.

This afternoon's match against Rotherham has been postponed due to a waterlogged pitch.

The decision by the match referee was made due to large areas of standing water in all areas of the pitch. Speaking about the decision chief executive Rob Heys said "We would like to thank everyone who came down and helped us to remove the snow from the pitch over the last few days, it really summed up what Accrington Stanley is all about. We had everyone on the pitch at one time or another, from supporters and players, management and staff, the youth team, community lads, even passing dog walkers!

"Without really wanting to single anyone out we should mention Mick from Redash with his JCB which was a fantastic help, our own Bill Holden, and supporters like Paul, Russell and Dale who all spent hours over the last few days scooping up snow and taking it out in barrows. Everyone really got stuck in to get the job done and it is such a shame that we have been caught out by heavy rainfall overnight.

"That said removing the snow helps to ensure that we can get Tuesday night's FA Cup match against Gillingham on, if the snow had thawed on the pitch there would be even more water on the playing surface which again would have caused problems."

A date for the rearranged fixture will be announced shortly.


Nice that the club have put this "Thank you" on for the fans!!!
