Meehan fuming after match postponed
10/01/2009 3:18pm
Bath boss Steve Meehan struggled to contain his anger after Saturday's Guinness Premiership clash against Wasps was postponed barely 90 minutes before kick-off. French referee Romain Poite decided parts of the Recreation Ground were unplayable following recent freezing conditions. "They (Wasps) were down here since nine o'clock (Saturday morning) telling anyone they could possibly find that it wasn't good to go," said Meehan. "The groundstaff were exceptional, and I am more disappointed for them. They've been up all night to try and make sure this fixture went ahead. We don't like not playing. We are not a side that comes in and calls games off - it is very disappointing."
