From a footballing perspective I don't think we'd be doing ourselves any favours in the long-run if this goes ahead. It'll likely be another home game where skill and ability is secondary to who copes better with the awful conditions.

Looks as if there's more rain on the way this afternoon and evening.

I quite agree. Peaksy admitted he had to take out two of our best players to take account of the conditions on Saturday. As a fan I want to see the best game possible, not something compromised by conditions.

Not a freaking chance of this being on if the rain over there is anything like what is coming down in Bedford at the moment !!

There was some light rain for around 15 minutes about 3pm. The sun was out in the morning though. If tomorrow is a bright day then there is a slim chance the game may go ahead.

Game is off.
