Snow affecting Hibs training? (merged)

[Baw187]

Does anyone know what the impact has been on our preperations this week with the snow?

I'm guessing less than pre East Mains but surely the squad will have been limited to indoor work and I'm wondering what that limits them too.

There's an indoor pitch (not full size) that they can train on, as well as an all-weather pitch outdoors which should be ok with the snow cleared from it, I'd guess.

Zemmama has had his left leg amputated from frost bite, apparently he's a doubt for the game at the weekend now :boo hoo:

Ah good. The all weather outdoor bad boy will have them sorted. I had visions of them playing 5s all week ahead of the big game.

So it should be business as usual then.

They foreigners are far too lightweight. Get a plaster on him and stick him up front.

Not hindered them much.

Players were off Sunday and Monday, in the barn today I would imagine.

That'll be the same BBC weather that forecast chilly but with bright spells today and completely forgot to mention the six inches of snow early this morning!

Thought they had an indoor pitch as well & 8 inches is child's play to the Scottish weather I left behind, never stopped us getting around :)

I was yesterday...had to dig the car out and then wait for snow ploughs...maybe we can just challenge the Huns to a snow ball fight...the thought of all that frozen water coming their way will have them running scared :greengrin

Hughes admitted he might have to rethink his plan to give his players Christmas Day off depending on the impact the weather has on today's training session with the squad having already enjoyed Monday off.

Is it common for footballers to train on Christmas day?

Used to play games on Christmas. These days with proper fitness regeimes diets etc most teams are in training, making sure their "enigmatic" players aren't out bladdered for the games that always take place on boxing day.

Looks like the players could be in on Christmas day:
