Sat on the seafront about a mile from BP and the weather is minging.

I wouldn't be bothered if it was called off if I'm honest.

HHHMM Give my back teeth to sit on the "Prom Wall" with a bag of Chips and a can of "pop" what ever the weather!
"Costa Del Caterham" does not have a clue on chips as for the game if its on I am listening at the dining room table via Radio Humberside.

If we play, what damage will it do to the pitch? It will be a quagmire and get badly churned up. The game itself will be a lottery with ball ball getting held up and not bouncing

Surely holding off the pitch inspection is helping the away fans? They've already left so the more work we put into it the better chance the game goes ahead

Quoted from quebec38
Absolutely not the clubs fault, I get that, but two hours before the game is too late. It’s pushing it for even surrounding areas like Lincoln let alone the Crewe fans who will be almost here. We’ve all had it happen to us, and it’s rubbish. There should be an arbitrary time the last inspection can be made and it should be earlier than 1pm for a 3pm kick off. To confirm, that is a dig at the league and not the club.

I see the usual non-attenders on twitter think it’s a cracking idea though. I guess they’ll just put a film on instead of the match eh.


I can’t imagine anyone involved in the decision making calling it off if it was borderline at 11am with the rain set to ease. It still may well be off but if it turned out it could be played and they had postponed it I’m sure those travelling wouldn’t be happy with that either - especially when faced with another trip on a Tuesday evening instead.
It’s just our crap weather, it will cause disruption even with the best of efforts.

Some of the comments around are just simply ridiculous. Firstly the club doesn’t make the call, the officials do. Some just happy to find a reason to have a moan at the club.

Also I’ve never really understood the “for the sake of the fans” argument. Sure, if it’s beyond doubt call it as early as possible. However if there’s a realistic chance of getting a game on, you have to give it as much chance as you can, surely? Anything other than that would just be a bit odd in my opinion..

I’m sure fans would be equally drunk off if a game was called off that could have been on.

Weather Radar shows the movement of the front going out to sea, and nothing behind it.
