Yes it is supposed to very dry round here. Not since i moved in !

I think Colchester are in deep poo and think they will drop as FGR on a bit of a roll (barring defeat to us)

Makes our game with Colchester absolutely massive for them,

Very likely that FGR will beat Sutton on Saturday. So if Colchester lose at home to Wallsal, which is a distinct possibility, they will suddenly find themselves 4 points adrift of third bottom.

They will have two games in hand, but with their ppg closing the gap with an inform FGR will not be easy.

They've now changed the pitch size to try to remove the problems a little. 4m narrower and 3m shorter

So Abo Eisa will be shooting from the half way line then.

Not sure how that’s going to help that much when you look where the standing water was when we were due to ply there a few weeks back.

I guess they've been told to demonstrate how they will get matches on in the coming weeks and this is what they've proposed. They will look silly if their game tomorrow gets postponed!

To be fair the 2m next to the sideline look the best part of the pitch! Are we sure they’ve not had it reduced to 4m wide?

Isn’t shortening the pitch just a tactic to make their long ball hoof forward approach more effective?

Walsall need to beat Colchester really. They’re one point outside the play offs and competing for the 7th place last play off spot with at least 6 other clubs. This is a very winnable game for them. Pressure on Colchester. The improvement of others during their inaction, preceded by poor form and they’re suddenly in the bottom two and desperate for points.

I reckon most people will expect FGR to beat Sutton. Any sort of a result tomorrow for us and I’d be happy…IF…. Walsall beat Colchester.
