Accrington v Portsmouth now off but due to a frozen pitch. Opportunity for us to apply some pressure tomorrow.

When was our game with hull first announced as off? Seems like they have recovered quickly to be playing tomorrow
 
Dont Accrington have covers? Thought it was a rule that you had to have them.
Thought they would of wanted to have the game on. They are going to be 4 or 5 games behind everyone else and that may catch up with them towards the end of the season.
 
They are going to be playing a lot of games in the remainder of the season. Points on the board is usually the better scenario.
 
I think Luke pointed out the volume of free midweeks on another thread but Accrington must be getting close to Tues / Thu territory now. Certainly very little scope to cope if Winter hits hard.
 
9 free midweeks, but they've got fit in around all their opponents doing the same.
They're going to be busy!
30 league games in 4 months.
 
Appreciate in this case it isn’t a cancellation due to COVID, but you begin to wonder at what point it harms the integrity of the league. And a shame it’s happening to Accy, a club you’d assume are probably less well equipped squad wise to deal with a fixture pile up.

They have covers. They only work down to certain temps.
 
Difficult to know which side will be more effected by the absentees , will the other lot with an allegedly patched up squad play like heck to beat the top side, or will we close ranks and win it for MA ? We will soon know. UTI.
 
We need to keep getting points on the board we have the chance to put pressure on the teams below when they play their games in hand.
 
Sunderland had cases after playing us, they then played their next game versus Wimbledon before the 3 games after that were then postpone. Who’s responsible for cancelling games, the league or the team?
