Game looks like a goer

ATHLETIC'S home match against Walsall tomorrow night (7.45pm) has a good chance of going ahead.

Cold weather has hit Boundary Park hard recently, but volunteers have helped clear snow and ice from the pitch and surrounding areas.

Two-thirds of the pitch is playable and though an area in front of the Main Stand is still hard, the milder temperatures forecast for today and tomorrow should solve the problem.


ATHLETIC legends Andy Ritchie and Rick Holden feature on tonight's Late Kick Off on BBC1. The programme starts at 11.05pm.
