Based on the fact our team are already here and have trained up at Rakesmoor lane this afternoon
Do you think our club would have had the players travel through to Barrow this early if there was any doubt surrounding the game?

With forecast tomorrow strong winds and heavy rain afternoon follow in from today I for one hope it is postponed.our pitch was really soft last home game.i would guess early inspection may be made as opposition coming long way.Would be a poor quality game for both sides in these conditions with I think an adverse effect on gate cos some of our casual supporters won’t turn out in these conditions.Plus they consider safety of travelling supporters as went
Nowadays.
Won’t Forest Green already be somewhere in the area? If anything it’s more likely we get a last minute call off from the ref when the heavens open 2pm onwards

SSE Wind at around 28/32mph with gusts of 45mph + expected. Safety will be the priority.
There's nothing dangerous about that forecast, normal "breeze" for here at this time of year.
Surprised the Snowflake forecasters haven't told us to "stay at home - danger to life"

Yes because they are professional footballers and until the referee says otherwise then they’ll follow their usual day of events.
Players have been in Barrow before when games have been called off so it means absolutely nothing

Blowing a gale and very unsafe this morning. Glad the game was called off yesterday. Stay safe everyone

No wind here and just walked my dog on Walney. I can't find anything on the Barrow website to say the game is off. Ridiculous post

It’s not off. It’s the calm before the storm of the century.

The club wont have a say if the game is going to be off, ref or local ref will make that decision. Players will have to come as nobody knows if the game will be on or off until the ref makes a decision.

Can you just clarify who makes the decision you didnt mention it SAG called a game off last season because a road was shut
