Italian stadiums that far north shouldn't be without roofs. Either way, these are high levels of snow.

They should impose fines on teams if it carries on happening.

Definitely freakish weather conditions. Still ridiculous for the league to have such shite stadiums up and down the country.

It's not possible. The stadiums are council owned and maintained, cost millions to refurbish or rebuild over months or years, not to mention the transport links. Clubs can't be punished for not being as wealthy as us. Still, it forces people to act to change after the damage is done, as is so often the case in Italy.

Bologna today I agree Jay, Parma game could've been played.

 

[JuveJay]

I reckon. Still, I'm glad we didn't play that particular one. I'm not really happy about this one, we will end up with fixture congestion at some point, but at least we have a big squad.

Elia might even get a game.

[Gerd]

[Fake Melo]

Who is this brother Eljero thou speak of?

 

[AndreaCristiano]

So if this is being replayed march 7th when is the parma game being played?

 

[gray]

If you can't fuckin' host a game then play it away. I don't fuckin' care, we have a stadium that can take any kind of conditions. Can't be postponing games all the time.

It would be awesome if this meant we could play more games in Juventus Stadium, but it won't happen in a million years

 

[Enron]

That's what they get for not installing undersoil heating.

To be fair, a large number of Italian stadiums were built for the 1990 World Cup, and there are a lot of older ones too (Bologna's was built in the 1920s)

To be fair, it is 2012.

To be fair, it is 2012.

That being said, when the respective city councils own these stadiums, there is less urgency to attend to these types of matters. Especially concerning playing conditions, when they know that sooner or later the match has to be played at some point during the season. Only when there are the deaths of spectators and/or players, or a situation where they will actually lose money because of the playing conditions, will there be any changes made.

 

[GordoDeCentral]

This sucks!

 

[KB824]

This sucks!

milan losing to Udinese is providing some comfort so far

 

[Hust]

More rest can't be bad.

Finally some reason around here.

Still no excuse.
