Claiming they have postponed because they are scared to play us is utter rubbish. If we had beaten them 6-0 on boxing day there might have been some support for that view but it was 1-1 and our keeper was a candidate for M o M.

I've not been to our recent games there but I'd grudgingly say Twerton is our of my favourite grounds even if yes it's not had much work done to it the past 20 years.

I'd also agree that we're not good enough to say any postponement/abandonement is always because the other team is scared to play us!

"If you're a cynic you have to suspect" is not a claim. It's obviously an opinion and as far as "always" goes, where did that come from? Then there's scared. Who said anything about them being scared? I'm looking at it from their poor form point of view and the ever present threat of the season being stopped again. Consider that in that event points per game comes into play. It's not unreasonable to suspect that teams are using Covid to postpone games when their form is poor knowing that come the end of the season not playing could be what saves them from relegation. What is unreasonable is claiming that as a fact which is something I haven't done. Feel free to disagree but don't discount the possibility. Stranger things have happened and it's a funny old game.

Admin or not, Twerton Park is an absolute shambles of a football ground.
 

Agree 100%, old school ground with a great atmosphere inside proper terrace. Imagine the players love playing there. Let’s be fair HP and Hungerford Town are along way down the pecking order in Conference South.
