Warrington have been advertising our game outside their ground since last Saturday. I spotted it on the way to our game from near there.

Surprised no one has discussed the possibility of this game being called off. Some serious liquid flying down today, tonight and tomorrow.

[Mrs Warbouys]

If they can’t stage a football after a few hours of winter weather it’s a poor so. Maybe the game should be moved here this afternoon if there’s any doubt

Be fair Pete...it's not so long ago we'd have been postponing Conference National fixtures after heavy rain. Remember the puddle that used to gather in the corner by the club shop ? This is League Glue, not League Two.

It’s October

 This is a possibility,Met office have issued a warning for Heavy rain and strong winds.

 Hope it's not called off,but if it is let's hope it is done at a time,before the red army arrive

 In Warrington.

It’s October 

It's raining

[Timperley The Best]

Looking at the forecast I would say unless they have a really bad pitch it should be ok ?

[Mrs Warbouys]

It’s October 

It's raining

No it isn’t

[Brian Flynn]

I believe that the Warrington pitch drains exceptionally well & that they hardly ever have games called off due to a waterloggged pitch.

[roytonmike]

Current BBC forecast is for heavy rain from 3pm Sat onwards ... it might be a good test for us as a 'top of the ground' side to plough through mud?
By the way, I seem to remember a game against Chorley on the equivalent Saturday in 1998 which was played in atrocious conditions, with standing water on the pitch by the end, which effectively made a mud-heap of Moss Lane for months - so it's happened before ... and we did win the league that season!

[TheCultOfIanTunnacliffe]

There's been an occasion on which we've had a home game postponed in August owing to heavy rainfall....


24 August 2004

TONIGHT'S GAME OFF

After a pitch inspection at 3.30pm. today's match against Barrow has been postponed.

After a fairly dry morning, torrential downpours during the lunchtime and early afternoon put paid to the game. Mark Maddox would have completed his four-match ban tonight but must now stay inactive till Bank Holiday Monday at the earliest.

[SammyH8]

Drive past the ground twice a day to and from work, sad we're playing in a league game, thought it would never happen,  hopefully be the last.

If we start well we will do them, hope the pitch / conditions don't do us over. Hoping Hannigan fit, onwards and upwards.

See you tomorrow. #coyr
