    Not a bad shout given the circumstances.

    I don't mean the weather - I mean our shortage of strikers.

    Good decision, it's highly unlikely travelling conditions will have improved much by the weekend, and calling it off now prevents wasted effort and expense trying to get the games on.

    No surprise but disappointing. Gives us another few days to get players fit though I suppose.

    Definitely, just walked home and the streets around ER are still a huge mess, no way they'd manage to make it safe for Sat given the forecast for more.

    The way things are at the moment it might not be a bad idea if the snow stays until the transfer window "springs open"

    I take it if transfer windows "slam shut" they must "spring open"

    Don't know if it's just a sign of me getting old, but can anyone explain why, in the 60's and 70's in weather like this the grounsman brushed snow off the lines, they swapped the white ball with an orange one and the crowd turned up without the police declaring the area around the ground as a disaster zone.

    Probably because there wasn't the threat of people suing if they fell over

    Surely the snow will prevent it swinging open

    A few suggestions:

    The weather this week is exceptional.

    The football authorities in the 60's didn't care about its customers discomfort.

    Roads weren't busy.

    Players lived nearer the stadiums.

    We didn't have such a litigious society.

    TV cameras didn't have to get to all the games.

    and John Motson and Archie MacPherson (both suitably sheepskin jacketed) live from some snow covered ground on Football Focus just confirming the match goes ahead.

    I'm in two minds about this.

    On the one hand it will make for a very boring Saturday with no football but on the other hand, I hope all our games are off until the middle of January at the earliest to allow Calderwood to bring some new players in.

    In all serious, it's a good decision by the SPL, and for once they've used some common sense by announcing it so early as it gives everyone plenty of notice and those coming from afar won't waste any energy or potentially put themselves in danger by trying to get to the game, only for it to be postponed at 1 o'clock on Saturday afternoon.

    The weather isn't forecast to get much better by the weekend so it's the only decision that they could possibly come to.
