Meanwhile, because the weather forecast has changed for Sunday night and temperatures are set to drop to -6, the covering of snow on top of the covers is being removed on the morning of the match. Obviously this is an even more mammoth task but equipment has been drafted in to help. The Dragons are appealing to supporters to come and dig for victory and help ensure that the game goes ahead.
The dig starts at 9am and any supporter arriving before 10am can have a free ticket for the game and a voucher for a pint of Worthington's. Supporters who have already bought their tickets for the game will be given a voucher that they can exchange for a ticket to any game of their choice during the remainder of the season.
