Final decision to be made at 10.30 with match officials in attendance.According to Hunslet Twitter feed.

Please be careful to all going to the game if it's on.

That approach to the ground, up the hill will be treacherous on foot or otherwise.

Can't see it been on.

EDIT: Game postponed.

Can they play winner takes all next Sunday

Postponment is bad news for teams at this time of year, as the busy Easter schedule draws near. I suppose we do have the advantage of having a decent amount of depth in the team compared to other teams in the division. Still puts unwelcome pressure on the fixture list at a peak time.

I'm really surprised they didn't ask for volunteers to clear the snow off the pitch. I suspect the pitch itself is playable - currently around +3 here in Leeds and snow is melting off rooftops and car roofs outside our house.

Tweeting pictures of snowbound pitch all morning seems like they'd already made their mind up that the game was going to be off - which is odd because that's their big payday gone (given that it will likely have to be midweek for the re-arranged game)

Regarding the Easter schedule; is it correct we don’t actually have a second Easter game? We have one on the Friday but nothing listed for Monday

It is correct.

Common sense has prevailed in that it's not fair asking part time players to play two games in a week, unless postponements make it necessary.

This probably means we're effectively pencilled in for a double fixture over Easter then, what with the next round of the CC not taking place until April 21st/22nd

Im surprised too. Been to roundhay park and the ground is very soft. Should be no issue of a frozen pitch. Looking like a mid-week fixture

From reading on Twitter, may not be true but says most clubs are trying to arrange the postponed games for evening this week. Hope that's true for Bulls.

We've got the postponed home game against Skolars to fit in somewhere too, although I suspect we'll leave that until later in year and play it on a cup weekend after we're knocked out.

If that's the case we'd need to be quick, as they restart scheduling league games quite quickly in our division since most Champ 1 teams don't last too long when the SL teams appear. If we have some luck with our cup games we may even be in the position of having to cancel more league fixtures to play cup matches.

Fax/Oldham and Crusaders/Fev are both on Tuesday evening. No word from Coventry or Hunslet as far as I've seen yet.

Cheers pal, they didn't mess around sorting them out did they.

League Express reporting that Hunslet & Bulls hoping to play the game by Wednesday but no official word yet.

I'd think as early as possible so as not to impact too much on next weekends game. The weather is going to get warmer pretty quickly, which is a good sign.

3 games in 10/11 days then. Think we'll have to use plenty of our squad for this period. Personally, i'd give plenty of the fringe players a go for the cup game. Leave Chissy out, then start him for the league game.

Agreed. I'm not bothered about the cup. Promotion is key.

I completely get that the league is number one priority; however if we cannot finish top of this league with the experience and depth we have then we have a very serious issue.

Getting through this round could be worth thousands of pounds in revenue and this has to be put equally on par over these next few weeks. If we don't then it ultimately effects our ability to strengthen later in the season or even next year.

Agreed. Out of all the seasons, i think this is the one where we can afford to have a cup run. We can rest and rotate players for when we play teams like West Wales, Hemel etc As you say, an opportunity for some financial rewards. With 3 games in 10 days though, i do think we need to make some changes for this fixture.

With regards to changes, there's another factor that we've never really faced before which can force your hand. With a large amount of the squad being part time now, if you arrange a game on a weeknight, there may be some players unavailable due to work commitments. If you arrange it on a night that would normally be a training night, it takes that away, but if not you may have one or two not able to play because they're working.

Rearranged for Easter Monday

Sounds like it's ages away doesn't it, but Easter falls much earlier this year. So it's only 2 weeks from today.

Officially announced now. 2pm KO on Easter Monday.
