Bath City are playing Hampton & Richmond. We are third in the table but, after us beating Torquay and Woking losing their last match, we are easily the form team with a 9 match unbeaten run. H & R have one win in the last 5. Twerton Park usually has a great pitch but, as I have a supporters society committee meeting tonight, I am dreading being volunteered to clear the pitch in our new community club era. I suppose I can chalk it up, along with painting the grandstand, as a rite of passage as a supporter.

France v Wales in the Six Nations at the Stade de France tomorrow night. My two regular 6N travelling companions and I are taking our wives away to the match and for the weekend. I think I'm going to be visiting the Louvre on Saturday afternoon rather than being at a game.

Having not had a live game since October I'm back with a bang this week with two on Saturday, our so called summer season starts with the Irn bru cup quarter final against East Fife at 3pm then, hoping there's no extra time, it's off to Croke park for Dublin Gaelic football's first home game against Galway, all in all an arse freezing day.

As much as artificial surfaces are something that fans and players hate, for lower league clubs they can be a godsend in getting games on.
Our game against Airdrie will be on tomorrow. I expect a fair few of our relegation rivals will have the weekend off.

As we are going to be getting a 3G pitch, I was wondering about this. Surely, regardless of the surface, the big issue is getting the snow off the surface? Also, it is often decided by the safety of supporters travelling to and getting around the ground, isn't it?

Supposed to be off to the Bridge for the feast for the eyes that Chelsea V Huddersfield will surely be but I'm in the midst of a bit of a family crisis at the moment so I may well have to give it a miss.

So Solid Crewe
Anyway we're on fixed tickets so the "backstop" is being discussed in our group - my initial response was "the pub", but another of our party is trying to punt Wigan v QPR. Anyone know if you can buy on the day at Wigan? I recall in their Premier League days they were strict about this (as Roy Keane discovered).

Clachnacuddin v Fraserburgh in the Highland League for me, although I don't think it'll be on.

ICT vs Partick Thistle will probably still go ahead tomorrow in Inverness (undersoil heating having been compulsory for stadia which host top division games in Scotland since the late 90s), but I can see why Paul might not want to go to that. Hell, I wouldn't fancy it and I'm a Partick fan.

I have and I would still go and see that, not least for the macaroni cheese pie. Indeed, it was similar weather up there the time I did see them.

And inevitably apt - called off as I was typing. At least this time they called it off in good time, rather than the time they called it off less than an hour before kick off with over a thousand away fans in town.

We were going to see South Shore Lumberjacks v. Valley Wildcats in Bridgewater this evening - but that has just been called off too. Blue skies here but over on the other side of Nova Scotia, there's a general travel warning in place due to heavy snow and high winds, so the Wildcats are not attempting the journey. Sensible decision, road safety (in general, but specifically for travelling sports teams with the Humboldt Broncos case being heard this week) is a big topic here: outside of Halifax, there isn't a great deal of traffic on most roads and highways, so they get covered - and slippery - pretty quickly.
