pcassist Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 (edited) I've just been to get the wifes ticket for today's game and I asked the young lady on the counter "how things we're" to be told if this rain keeps we could have a problem playing the match. I can't confirm if there is to be a pitch inspection, but thought I should let your all know what has been said. Don't shoot me down but it could be Rochdale all over again. Ian G.

I don't see your point...if the game is called off won't it lead to more disillusionment or not ? You can go back to bed now and get out of it the right side next time.

mick26 Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 Refs already been on pitch - not a problem and to make sure my brother has taken some kind of specialist equipment to BP to help the ground staff.

The point was it may deter some from coming if they think the club is having problems handling a bit of rain. A more positive message should have appeared on the official website saying the match is definitely on - all get down here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
