We’re exploring all possible opportunities… Unless they cost too much or take too long.

I’m not sure that statement is going to endear them to the EFL.

They take so long to do anything, don’t they? Making decisions, announcements, sending faxes. Such a set of dithering dickheads.

Excuses excuses excuses.

A different kind of aroma than what we are smelling right now

And there it is. All hail our glorious leaders. Its never their fault.

‘Beyond the club’s control’

The club is treating this matter with the utmost seriousness and is committed to doing everything in its power to address the current concerns regarding the pitch, while balancing time constraints, the congested fixture schedule and the significant financial implications involved. However, we also recognise that weather conditions can present challenges that are, at times, beyond the club’s control.

It is the arrogance and the contempt they have, that even a consideration to inform the supporters is beneath them. Desai quote"ingrates"

In resp to emails this lunchtime, the Club were saying 'tonight's game is on'. No response to a follow up request for them to state this publicly, or to give a brief website update on the state of the pitch, tho....

Mental that rovers fans are dependent on some second hand information from, no offence to them but Oxford fans who are looking to get a bus to Lanc, it is crazy the club need to seriously get a grip on its fan communication

Ridiculous that thats how we find out the game is going ahead instead of communication from the club

Lmao genuinely made me laugh like fook that 🤣🤣 Tell you one thing they can beat us with sticks up here in the North West and we would still find something to laugh at 🤣🤣🤣

It’s actually insane that we’re reliant on intel from the Oxford bus stewards as to whether the game is going ahead. Venky’s and Suhail’s Rovers: not giving a shit about the fans since 2010.

This

The manager insisting to the owners that investment in the pitch is essential. We know how that goes.

Possibly more impactful than Buckley tbf

Which contradicts another Oxford fan mentioning a 5 ‘o’ clock reassessment. If only those who know for sure would share with us…

It's especially grim up North. Respect to the Oxford fans that turn up.

According to an Oxford Messageboard about 10 minutes ago, the stewards on the coaches have been told the game is on.

They are just incompetent, they just don’t want to admit that there is anything out of the ordinary going on and hence, the radio silence. As far as they are concerned, the line is we have just been unlucky with the weather and so this Oxford match is just business as normal ! I’m really hoping it is called off, with everything going on off the pitch and the injury situation, we could do with a postponement finally going in our favour.

There is an air of arrogance around Rovers under Rudy Gestede and Pasha. Waggott was a bit of a cock who lacked ambition but was a canny operator. He'd have been all over it today letting us know the game was safe and get down. It comes to something when you start to feel like you miss a Steve Waggott type..
