Supposed to be dry all day Friday & Sat morning, so hopefully give the pitch a good chance to drain.

I may be wrong, but don't think we have full ground coverage with these?? Over 2" of rain last night which will run off somewhere. Used them before Cheltenham game and over 2000 litres of water shifted off the small area in front of the HS end. Apologies if i have this info wrong.

PerthBluebird doesn't. The game could always be changed to his/her back garden which is always playable, apparently. :D
Don't let the old man in.

Where do you think the collected water would then go?
You really do come out with some stupid comments.
We didn't underestimate them, we just didn't think they were that good.

If it gets very very cold then it may freeze and then we won’t have a problem with standing water, PROBLEM SOLVED :lol: :lol:
We're all supporters on here. Let's leave the negative comments to the away fans
