I don't know about the pitch now Charlie but the weather doesn't look good.

Forecast is if it comes to fruition.

A bright start. Rain and strong winds will move by early afternoon, with rain heavy in places and hill snow at first. Turning clearer with wintry showers in the evening.

Met Office Warnings Issued For:
West Yorkshire

Yellow early warning of snow
From: 0600 on Sun 22 February To: 1700 on Sun 22 February
Updated 20 February at 10:46

Rain, sleet and snow spreading east on Sunday will tend to turn back to rain, but remain as snow on high ground where accumulations of more than 5 cm are expected in places. Winds will gust to over 50 mph on coasts and hills, leading to blizzard conditions on high level routes.

The public should be aware of difficult driving conditions and the risk of disruption to transport.

So much for summer rugby.

Thanks for the info, could you keep us Informed about the game, it would be a shame if it was called off ,as I know many Leythers are making the trip to Fax.

Charlie come over anyway, you would receive a warm welcome at Halifaxjohn Towers. Mrs halifaxjohn would make you roast beef and YORKSHIRE pudding.
After all Charlie a day in Halifax beats a fortnight mixing with LANCASHIRE Puddings.

Town "played" today, so the pitch must have been ok then, a bit of snow forecast for tonight and rain all day tomorrow.
Should be a very heavy pitch, at least Sam will have a soft landing.
Charlie's in the sponsors lounge, Charlie we are trying to attract them not drive them away.

I may be guilty but always supported him in a GB shirt
Do remember some great tussles between him and Terry Langton.

MoM when Wigan beat us at Wembley in 1988. We may have called him many things, most of them not complimentary, but that was mainly out of respect for a fine player (albeit we probably didn't think that way then!).
