Always a chance of course, but given the water table being low as it's Summer, i would doubt it unless we have a massive deluge late afternoon.

Only two games into the season and we have our winner in the 'will the game be off?' sweepstake. Winner to be notified.

When was the last time we had a game called off for a waterlogged pitch?

It's been pretty heavy for a few hours, but has eased off now and is looking a bit brighter. Fingers-crossed we'll not get too much more in the way of heavy rainfall and some of the standing water will have the chance to drain away.

Just been down to Blundell Park to get my ticket for the game.

It's stopped raining and the sun is trying to break through.

Barring a tropical storm the game is definitely ON.

Just driven back from work in Donny. Thinking the worst til I get to about Stallingborough turn off and the ground is dry. Hopefully this psychologically affects the Derby players and we can get a win tonight.

Word from my inside man (well, a bloke we know who works on one of the turnstiles) is that the match is definitely on. No problems with the pitch since the rain pretty much stopped a couple of hours ago.

My front drive is under water. Good job we are not playing the game there then. It'll be on.

Can't imagine the Derby players will be thrilled about it. Let's smash them
