Spireites v Charlton Is On... For Now


Friday 10th February 2012

With frozen temperatures predicted overnight there is some concern that The Spireites game against Charlton may have to be postponed.

The club has however, just informed us that it is still on, for now. They say that a further assessment will be made tomorrow morning. The B2net pitch has passed an initial inspection by Premier League match official Glenn Turner, brought in by the Football League to make an assessment.

Although the game has been given the go ahead at the moment, much will now depend on the overnight weather, and tomorrow morning's inspection, particularly with the overnight temperatures.

Glenn Turner said: "My primary concern is the safety of the players and at the moment the pitch is playable. The match referee will need to make an assessment on Saturday depending on what happens overnight."

The groundstaff will be re-covering the pitch overnight and it will be a case of fingers crossed that the weather remains kind.
