Heavy rain from 1pm - 6pm tomorrow - will that hamper our play? 21:56 - Sep 19 with 3503 viewsunstableblue

Or are modern pitches able to drain quick enough to handle it?

Would be a shame if the momentum from the Blades massacre was stalled by some poor game conditions.

Poll: Has this been a positive transfer window, and are Town stronger for it?

Interesting to see if Furlong gets another red card against them to go with his one earlier in the season.

The matching pair!

I guess that was a second yellow.

Chances of cards does go up in the wet. As do errors.

Are we seeking divine intervention?

It is going to be a long old winter if we are going to be dependent on the weather.

I think the problem with their pitch is that it drains straight into the river and if the rainfall is high enough the drains can back up. They had a game postponed last season against Pompey due to a water logged pitch.

It is a yellow warning for rain/flooding - doubt we’ll get that very often

But yeah our team need to manage it, as do Blackburn, and get a result

Stop looking for weak excuses. We might have to play games in less than perfect conditions, and so will other sides.

We aren’t Real Madrid are we, we’ve not dominated possession in any game yet, even last week first half we struggled to keep the ball well.

We don’t need excuses. We’ve had 14 months of them.

‘We’re just league one’ - without any league one players.

‘We signed so many players’ - as a choice.

‘Wrong type of rain’ - our players might melt. Sake.

Just a chain reaction innit.

Lotsa rain in NW England in autumn shock.

Been chucking it down here, about 30 miles NE, since sparrowfart, and set to continue even more heavily this afternoon apparently.

"...we’ve not dominated possession in any game yet...

I'm not sure what counts as "dominates possession" for you, but 69-72% in several matches this season does for me.

If you want to be constantly negative and critical, maybe try to base it on some facts, and not things that are easily disputed.

Get with the programme Cressi… it’s a deluge, biblical rain, rivers flooding nearby negating pitch drainage system, locusts… McKenna needs an ark not a tactics board

We’re doomed… doomed I tell yee

I went to uni in Salford way back in 1980. The first term it rained heavily every single day. I though it was normal, given no-one really commented about it. Then the River Irwell burst its banks, worst flooding for donkey's years!
