So was Mike Brolly  

Ditto Tony Ford.

Will all the pitch have covers on if so there's still a chance maybe?

All depends how wet the rain is

Yes, another good one.

The BBC has occasional thunderstorms from 1900 hrs onwards, with the rain tailing off during the match.  They will look at the forecast and take this (reasonably good news) into account when reaching a decision.

Fingers-crossed.

I really don't want to be Captain Obvious but it's the ref's decision and it will be based on how much water is standing on the pitch when he (assume it's a he) looks at it. If the covers are on there'll probably be very little standing water. Game on.

The board know how important momentum is. We've sold out tonight, are in form and Wrexham aren't firing on all cylinders. Factor all of that in and everything will be done to ensure that pitch is playable.

A couple more occasions like tonight from a sell-out point of view and investments start paying for themselves.

I've seen someone mention that the glass Findus barrier is potentially paid for tonight.

Stockwood has told us all that we don't need a new stadium if we can't fill BP. Well, it only took 3 games for us to do that. I'm sure they will be discussing the possibility of temporary seating if things continue. Small things like opening up the area near the Directors Box make a huge impact. I don't know how many seats it is they have released in that area but they are making sure we don't look at a sold out Findus and spot a sea of red corporate seats.

bloody hell some drama queens on here

we've had it for an hour, the covers are on, its scheduled to ease and then stop around KO Time

I don’t think it’s particularly dramatic to suggest 7 hours of continuous rain puts the match in serious jeopardy. We saw games at Exeter and Barrow called off for less last season.

I really really hope it isn’t and the pitch holds up, but it’s got to be in some doubt if it continues all afternoon

I have just been to BP and the covers only cover the goal mouth's to the pen spot

i think the statement

" surely its going to be off"  was extremely dramatic

Weather is still a bit dreary but the rain has pretty much stopped.
