The pictures on twitter look fine. Most grass I've seen on it for ages. Only thing I can think is they uncovered it last night and it got rained on ovenight.
If this is called off now instead of yesterday or first thing this morning I will be mightily fucked off. I'm nearly at the Valley . Barnsley fans would have a right to be extremely mad. What a shambles.
The tweet said "following the arrival of the referee there will be a 1pm pitch inspection". Can only assume it wasn't planned and the club felt the pitch was ok. Given the well documented issues we have had, I assume the ref is covering his back.

! Lovely sunny day for 3 points.....please!
I have had nowhere near my quota of worrying for today, and that in itself worries me.
I would have some sympathy for travelling fans. It is OK for me, have not left the house yet.
Postponing the Oxford tie on Tuesday for a 3rd time, that would be embarrassing.
There's still time....
