Hope this one gets played - heavy rain forecast for this evening, wonder if the pitch can cope?
Dry and windy all day should help dry the pitch out - but that rain worries me!!

If game goes ahead I predict our lowest crowd of the season. I for one will not be able to make it and would not be too disappointed if it was postponed.

I imagine there will be a swamp inspection at some stage, be it officially or otherwise.

Twitter feed has stated that pitch is perfectly playable and no need for a pitch inspection

If the forecast heavy rain comes late afternoon/early evening it is likely to sit on top of the pitch rather than soak away which is a worry as it could mean either a very late postponement or even an abandoned game.

I can't help but wonder whether Nathan Rao and James Madden have ever actually got a weather prediction right, I guess they're just hoping for that one year out of 50 they can say they were rightTrek wrote:Especially the guy that does the weather forecasts for the front page of the Daily Express!rushdenman wrote:

Another frustrating game where we have the better chances but still manage to lose the game if that doesn't mean we need better striking options I'm confused. Lorraine and liversedge are squad players. Hope dolmans injury isn't to bad with only having two centre halves available at the minute.
