Light precip at the moment but should clear up by kick off according to the forecast. Hopefully just a precaution.

Really ? There must be standing water to call for an inspection and with rain forecasted for the next two hours there must be serious doubt

I’d imagine it’s been called just to give people ample time, the weather is due to ease off by 12 and stop by 2pm

The water table is really high, there's standing water near us where I haven't seen it before (near Louth). Just surprised at the timing as it will still be raining then but is more likely to be fit by kick off time.

My garden is ankle deep in water. It's the cumulative effect of many days rain. The water table is very high.

If it is on, the pitch will be very heavy and we also have the usual matchday wind, so it won't be a great day for football.

I’m in Cleethorpes, been steadily raining all night and morning, standing water everywhere.
