Groundsman turns weather forecaster
God that makes me want to stick my fingers down the back of my throat.
Either that or slap the man about the face at the same time as
scientifically explaining to him to effects of a maritime airflow.

Dear All
From the Ipswich Town fanzine website - as well as tending to the hallowed
Portman Road turf prior to our crunch top-of-the-table match with Norwich,
the Ipswich groundsman also knows about his wintertime Rossby wave
patterns:
----------------------------------------------------
Town groundsman Alan Ferguson is preparing himself for weekend snowfalls
ahead of Sunday's Portman Road derby with Norwich. The Meteorological
Office
has warned that the east of the country could well be affected by snow
prior
to Sunday's crucial clash.
The east coast of the US has recently had signaficant amounts of snow and
Ferguson says this subsequently affects Britain: "We normally tend to get
the tail end of it about 14 days later, once it has worked its way across
the pond, and that's what is happening this time."
