Wish they'd hurry up and confirm. I've got to get to the station in Preston and hope the train gets me to the Ricoh on time!

I think the home end will be a lot more sparse than usual too, can see many not even chancing driving or walking up to the Ricoh.

800 braved Wycombe on a midweek. In arguably worse external conditions.

Was more thinking of the senior section of the fan base who will not risk injury or accident and decide to stay away.

800 to Wycombe midweek in temperatures of -6 is a great turn out but the snowfall in people's streets wasn't a issue then was just the air temperature.

I think if there's any doubt about safety it will be called off.

Health and safety gone mad. 3 inches of snow and country at a standstill.

If the players showed such commitment as the fans we would be top of the league

Looking at weather radars no snow forecast in Coventry today. Temp will be around 1 all day with some rain in the evening

There was plenty of snow around Wycombe in side streets around Wycombe. Main roads were clear.

This is true, but they were younger then.

It is strange how the uk reacts now compared to 30 years ago.

There are Lincoln fans in Cov already. Their fans certainly don't want it cancelled judging by the reaction to that tweet. Just call it on. It's 3cm of snow. Not sure what the issue is.

A common theme coming from clubs up and down the country is the concern for the safety of traveling fans.

This is the uppermost concern over a playable pitch

Confirmed now.

I know how important Moz Baker is (somewhere in-between Joy Seppala and Donald Tusk), but just wanted the club to say for sure.

I feel sorry for all the Lincoln fans who have traveled.

Especially after the club was saying it was on yesterday

I wonder if Lincoln forced the decision. Do they have minor injuries to key players? #conspiracy

Right decision in my eyes.

Club obviously would never of wanted this off given its legends day and preparation gone in, and likely costs incurred from the catering side but they really should not of been so public and stated as game on
