I'm not going. After spending the best part of last week snowed in (after 3 days the village shop was out of provisions and by Saturday we were reduced to re-using our last tea bag and milking the dog) I only just managed to get to the JJB and back on Sunday. I think I'll give the icey wastelands of Hull a miss. I lived there once so I know exactly what it can get like!
Could be worse. In the 1962-63 season Wigan had 12 matches in a row postponed and went without a game for 76 days (Christmas to March) because of bad weather. This County has gone soft!

* The grass surface measures 114m x 74m providing a FIFA standard-sized football pitch of 105m x 68m and a full-length rugby league pitch of 100m x 68m with in goal areas 5m deep. * The grass is 100% natural, comprised of 90% sand and 10% loam. It also has 3% additive of man-made fibre. * The fibre is woven into the roots of the grass and goes down 200mm. If threaded together, these fibres would circle the globe! * The pitch has an automatic irrigation system as well as under pitch heating. * When the temperature drops to below 4°c undersoil heating provides enough heat to raise the temperature to 9°c. * The water porosity of the pitch at source is 25-30mm per hour. * There are 22 miles of under soil heating pipes.

We'll still make the trip regardless
