If so they better put it on. I know a guy who used to work on the Sky OB units, and he said that Sky go mental if the club knows about weather conditions in advance, but does fuck all about it. Sky still have to pay the contractor, whether the game goes on or not, unless it's postponed a few days in advance. The weather, in this country, can change so much, in 24 hours, that it could be frozen solid one day, then waterlogged the day after. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure they have under soil heating and it would be unbelievable if they haven't got it on by now - it would show a complete lack of interest in the fans. Couldn't give a fuck whether it upsets sky or not, right enough. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
A.T.G 10,773 Posted November 25, 2016 Share Posted November 25, 2016 This game has a bit of significance to it (I know they are all important blah blah) but it would be the first time we have went 3 games on th bounce with a win, plus Aberdeen aren't playing and we play them pretty soon so a great chance to catch them and then open up a sizeable gap. 3 points Rangers please Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ivybank 4,851 Posted November 25, 2016 Share Posted November 25, 2016 They have under soil heating but hardly put it on,and there's a bit of the pitch it barely covers, between that and thick fog forecast for tomorrow it could be off? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
siamthedanger 2,913 Posted November 25, 2016 Share Posted November 25, 2016 This is a big game, 3 points here then 3 points at Tynecastle will make at least a bit of a statement. Can't afford anymore slip ups but I just wonder where the goals are coming from? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
A.T.G 10,773 Posted November 25, 2016 Share Posted November 25, 2016 This will no doubt be the most popular thread here the next few days so here goes: "We should all make a concentrated effort to call Clyde 1 on Monday and ask them why they aren't discussing the sexual abuse cases throughout the UK and urge anyone in Scotland to come forward, we should also ask why every time it's brought up they cut callers off" Gaz52 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaz52 11,837 Posted November 25, 2016 Author Share Posted November 25, 2016 The temperature is below freezing and it's to be like this right through to tomorrow. I don't think their pitch will hold out to be honest, can see this one getting two big Ps right next to it Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sugar_free_pizza 402 Posted November 25, 2016 Share Posted November 25, 2016 this is what the left side of the pitch looks like near the 18 yard line, you can hardly see the lines on the pitch Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Misteral 2,950 Posted November 25, 2016 Share Posted November 25, 2016 I expect a convincing win. Hope I'm not being too optimistic but whatever happens three points are simply vital. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wearethepeople72 1,859 Posted November 25, 2016 Share Posted November 25, 2016 Anyone know of any decent boozers nearby to watch this in? Going along without a ticket so need a backup plan. Hopeful of getting one on the bus or outside the ground though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

To Be A Ranger 4,032 Posted November 26, 2016 Share Posted November 26, 2016 My first away day for a few years (and even then it was to give my boy a taste of a few aways to show him what its like before he was old enough to venture off with his pals) and I'm hearing that cunts like this insignificant bunch of Rangers haters can't afford to heat their pitch. Get the game on you cunts. Otherwise I'll be spending the whole day in the Royalty. The missus is going to be a right fuckin bundle of laughs if that happens. Any cunt up for a few jars?
