Could be a bit like when we played Ayr. Got knows if the A9 will be open in the morning. Does seem slightly bonkers though given we have known about this weather issue all week.

I imagine they`ll be praying for our pitch to freeze and for more snow up there. That would give the new manager more time with the players.

Interestingly, when looking at the BBC weather app it doesn`t say `do not travel` against any of the coloured weather warnings. That seems to be down to the local authorities...so maybe Uncle Roy will get onto the local coppers and get the notice put out not to travel. 😂

County will be praying the games off, new manager just in and a few players with a sickness bug supposedly.

I’m on Elgin and the snow is pretty bad and due to be bad overnight. The A9 can be a nightmare at the best of times

Common sense and logic go out the window in these situations.

Even if RC can get down the road tomorrow the weather could worsen into Saturday night making the return trip a hazardous trip.

Nobody can predict with any certainty one way or the other - postponing the game is the least worse case scenario.

Classic damned if you do and damned if you don’t.

I saw a post somewhere from someone claiming to be working in Travel Lodge, or maybe Premier Inn.
Said 23 Ross County bookings made for tonight (Friday Night)

There is a bus up there belonging to Dunfermline City Brass, who were hired to play all through the night at various times. Don’t know why 👿 😂.

Just checked the cameras on the A9 and unless there is improvements throughout the morning then I doubt we will see any Ross County supporters. If there are any, they need the reward of a hot homemade soup.

Lovely morning, above zero already and not a bit of frost. Pitch will pass any inspection only issue will be travel conditions

Pitch ought to pass but unless Ross Co. are already down I’m not sure they’ll get here looking at the slochd and drumochter traffic cameras.

Seems to be quite a few gritters going up and down the a9, so might be ok. The traffic scotland website is only showing the a9 northbound as closed due to a fallen tree.

They’ve definitely written it in a manner that they themselves are pushing for it to be off.

Traffic Scotland cameras show the A9 looking pretty clear.
