I'm surprised it wasn't called off sooner.

Ref HAS to make the decision.
I wish I'd have took a photo at half eight, you could see the grass then and only a scattering of snow

Not allowed to. Minimum entrance fee for adults from the 3rd Round of the cup is £15

Thought that too LD, but from Accy Site:-

FA Cup sponsored by E.On Third Round
Friday 1st Jan 2010

Accrington Stanley v Gilingham

Admission is pay at the turnstiles for all areas of the ground, with adult prices £15 for seating and £13 on the terrace, concessions £10 and £8 and under 16's and students £6 and £5. Please note we reserve the right to ask for proof of age or educational status. It is hoped that a good crowd will be at the Crown Ground as we play for a place in the last 32 and so supporters are advised to arrive at the stadium in good time.

But what do we know?

VALAIRIAN · 02-01-2010, 13:01

From B.B.C. Website, how accurate, I do not know?

Accrington P-P Gillingham

Accrington Stanley's FA Cup third-round tie against Gillingham has been postponed because of snow which fell during the course of Saturday morning.

The game at the Crown Ground has been rearranged for Tuesday 12 January at 1945 GMT.

Yep just checked again, there is a 'mutual agreement' provision allowed. I did think it was a fixed rule, not like the FA to allow a rule to be felxible

Redash · 02-01-2010, 13:11

Here are my pictures from this morning, approximately 10am

And a Video Stanley in the snow 3.8Mb 26 seconds long

So why did they call it off ?

Redash · 02-01-2010, 13:16

I'm not sure, maybe they're all soft.
