    Right, I'm going to put my washing on, and come back in quaret of an hour. Hopefully the ref will have made his mind up by then.
  • Referee is back out on the pitch to have another look

    Complains that his hair is getting wet and rushes back off into the dugout
  • What's the problem, just adapt your game to match the conditions,,,easy,

    I suppose the ref is giving it every chance, looking on the positive side, the pitch must be playable now and a further inspection is to see if it's deteriorated, maybe. 
  • Ball not bouncing very well in parts of the pitch. I think the concern is if it rains further the pitch won’t hold up.

    I know this is nonsense, cos he's the only ref in the EFL who actually wears something over his hair for religious reasons :P

    No chance this goes ahead.

    Just seen them try and pass the ball in the centre circle and the ball stops dead.

    The pitch looks absolutely fine and the ball is moving fine in warmup. No idea what the issue is 
    Posted within 1 minute of each other.

    Looking at the tv pictures this ain’t going ahead 
  • To be fair the ball doesnt look to be bouncing or rolling too well here

    Browny Just sad the ref should call it off now. Rain expected for another hour. The ball couldn't even roll a 15 yard pass it just stopped in its track. 

    For me with our midfield maestro's being what they are, it should be off. Last thing we war is any injuries from getting boots stuck in the mud.

    I'd love there to be a game on, what with our current run, but it needs to be safe.

    Such a shame for all those that have travelled in numbers and many probably won't make the inevitable evening kick off, if postponed.

  • can the game go ahead with pick and place out of casual water

  • Absolute joke. Proper woke decision with no consideration for the fans.

    Hope you stayed in the pub - game's off.
