Official Match Preview

If it goes ahead, a real chance to move away from the Crows who I still regard as a serious challenger. They've stuttered in their last couple of matches dropping 4 points.

I saw them at Barton Rovers last night, and they looked a decent side, playing with plenty of width. They were guilty of overplaying things in the final third otherwise they would have been well ahead before conceding a goal. They then scored twice to take the lead and totally relaxed, letting Barton equalise and almost snatch a win. Lance Key was part of their coaching staff.

Well the weather has been pretty good, let's hope the water levels have dropped so we can get the game on.

It was horrific here in Welly overnight, not so sure how well the pitch will have taken that.

I was a bit surprised with the good weather post, it wasn`t very good Bedford way and chucked it down in St Neots last night, need at minimum I would think, no more rain and lots of wind to have a chance, though that is about what is predicted.

Most of the County experienced heavy overnight rain so the drying out that occurred yesterday was undone. No rain today but gales up to 50 mph forecast for tomorrow afternoon.

Sure it rained but it wasn't BAD, not over my house anyway . I'm still hoping the game can go ahead.

I`ll join you in the optimistic corner as I want to watch a game tomorrow, but it chucked it down here last night and I`ve just walked over a grass field at work and it`s like a swamp.

Well according to the twitter feed the match is on bar heavy overnight rain.
