The forecast, or the current weather for that matter, is not friendly

Typical, will the first Saturday game I'll be able to attend in ages, so its bound to be called off because of the bloody rain!! :( :roll: :evil:

The BBC 5 day forecast suggests some rain on Friday morning but then just a bit of light rain overnight/early Saturday so it will hopefully be o.k.

MMA game moved to the school today. It depends on if Jolly Joe and the Smelly Welly boys decide to train on it.

Next two matches are massive games league wise - win both and that's a real statement of intent eh?

Wishing my life away to the next game these days

I hope the weather forecast is right because at the moment, looking out of my window, I'm contemplating building an ark !!! Should dry up at about 11am and stay dry from then on until Sunday - hope the pitch can cope and that we get this game done and won to keep the pressure on the chasing pack !!

It`s just stopped here and if forecast is correct should not be much/any more. Good news from the photo is the standing water is off the playing surface and no sign in background of any chewed up areas on the pitch, so may be Welly activated the collective brain cell last night and didn`t train on it. Should be ok after all Hedges has got another 28 hours to work on it ;)

I took Adam for an NFA Football Futures meeting there last night and the lights were on. Thankfully there was no one training on it.
