[QUOTE=cashman;1205596, its about no communication to fans, as i said before, has been going on for donkeys years, long before Andy was involved, fans are treated like they dont exist.its the people responsible for this that need sorting out imho.[/QUOTE]

and quickly too. sometimes the club cannot do anything about it with a very late call off like the burton game a few years ago but last saturday was another matter. as for the refs 1030 inspection its not all about how the pitch actually looks then, you have to take future weather between then and 5 pm into consideration. a pitch that is bone hard at say 9am with a strong warmish sun on it will be fine a couple of hours later. the same with wet conditions. if the pitch is borderline at say 9am but the forecast is for more rain then you call it off. i,ve always gone by if in doubt call it off. save teams and fans travelling. done pitch inspections for north west counties and eastern counties leagues in the past.
