Today's game being postponed certainly is a disgrace as it as resulted in two home games in a row being postponed and was postponed far too late, it should have been postponed earlier or yesterday so the away fans didn't have a wasted journey, I will be posting a letter to the club suggesting covers get put on the pitch prior to the heavy rain if it is forecast for next home game.
Disgrace
- Thread starter Somerset
- Start date
How many threads do you need to start about this? Just write your letter without telling us every day. Covers would make no difference as there is nowhere for the water to drain into as every man and his dog have told you.
Next time you are looking at a set of fans to help try the other end of the alphabet.

For heaven's sake, you cannot keep serious rain off a football pitch with covers!! It's not like a (6 asterisks) tennis court. You need to roof the stadium as at Cardiff, or erect a tent that covers the whole thing including the stands. Covers work with frost, not rain.
Yes, it probably/possibly should have been postponed earlier. But that is not the club's sole decision. As you have pointed out, there will now have been a six week gap between home games - this is not a disgrace, but it is a potential financial nightmare, new backing notwithstanding.
Aye but thats commonsense, somerset won't understand it.
FFS get it posted ASAP, then you don't need to bother coming on here again!
As previously noted K itch, this man/woman is merely a nuisance who must be avoided !!...
His tedious interjections then should be ignored by all .
Although I agree this game could and should have been cancelled earlier , don't blame the club , they will have been as frustrated as the fans. Now lets get things into perspective , look elsewhere people have their houses flooded etc, etc we lucky we only missing a game!
The ref was yon at 11-00, commonsense should have prevailed, but as usual none was used.
no other words for it. I could think of a lot but cannot be posted on here. took me 90 mins to get home instead of 45 and never seen as much water on the roads or around the ground also. had a peep through the gates and the far side was flooded. don't know what the refs. thinking was knowing forcasts for rain but I suppose that we are only supporters and we are the last to know things if ever. not a happy monkey to say the least.
Having seen the pictures on twitter it's hard to see what the ref was thinking.
Only another half hour and I'll be home.
I think you should be applauded for your effort,s just to cheer you up after today,s results if and it,s a big if we ever play our 2 games in hand and win by more than 3 clear goals we would be second we can but dream safe journey for the rest of the way,
Thank you. I'm sure that there are many Stanley fans throughout the season putting in similar efforts to follow the team accross the country
It's good to see the results went our way as well
Has Divvy got a mate?
Looking at this photo I can say there's no way the game could be played today
Pathetic and foolish !....GO. AWAY. !!!
Sorry Alan but this person is obviously a male - he's using absolutely no logic at all & obviously only has room in his brain for one train of thought

You sussed me out again didn't you ?. Forgive me for using this utterly useless thread to get a cheap chauvinistic aside in !!.
