Don’t they have covers and decent drainage?
Regrettably I don't think they do. However if it is as bad as some reports are expecting it to be the decision makers might also factor in getting to and from the ground and not just the pitch itself.

Hard call as to whether to bother driving up there isn't it. I won't be leaving until 1ish probably
I'd leave it as late as you can. You could probably set off from Suffolk area around 3 and still make the game (if it's on). It'll be a horrific drive mind you, as the rain is following us up the motorway.

Yet as far as I can tell, there is no official suggestion that a postponement is even a possibility. Wouldn't we usually get something by this point along the lines of "there will be a pitch inspection at x time" or even just "the club are keeping an eye on the situation"?

We should say to Rothers that we want a defo green light at midday that it goes ahead and if it doesn't then you pay our fans travel compensation...

Pitch inspections are pretty much never mentioned or announced unless the pitch has already reached a dodgy state.

Worth remembering that SKY couldn't give a flying forklift truck about fans who actually go to the games - they'll be wanting the game on regardless of the conditions folk going to the game have to battle through.

But I might have expected it mentioned with the forecast as it is. Just think that if there is any serious danger of it being off more of a 'thing' would've been made of it.
As much as I want to see us play, and it being on sky and everything, it's that thought that it's a 'farcical last minute winner' as a back pass gets stuck in the mud game written all over it. And we just know it won't be us that scores it.

I am already in Sheffield. If the game is off, I am straight back to the beer festival at the Kelham Island Museum, which provided a perfect early session tonight, from 5-10. Hic...
