So the pitch could be playable now, but yet come 6 be called off anyways, bloody british weather :roll:

I do find it rather odd that a pitch inspection is taking place so early in the day. This doesn't allow for any unfavourable weather for the best part of 10 hours. The forecast is for showers or sleet this afternoon and into the evening. Surely a 6pm inspection would be more appropriate.

I think the inspection is an unofficial one to see whether it is worth throwing two tonne of sand over the pitch during the day.

If it gets called off after it's been given the green light in a minute then I will go on a rampage. ROOOOOOOOAR!
