For next home game against Fleetwood on 30 March the weather basically has to be dry as I would not want to see two home games in a row postponed due to bad weather which I would find a disgusting disgrace. I saw a photo of the pitch online today and there was unfortunately no way the game could be played as one corner is very underwater. Here's hoping the weather will be dry for the next home game.

- Thread starter Somerset
- Start date
Is your real name SIMON?
No, it is Joe Wills and I think major work needs doing on the pitch during the summer as Burnley's game up the road has gone ahead with no problems.
Thats because even their forks have six fingers
You're right, & that work would cost approximately £250,000 - feel free to donate to the cause. Thank you
You've got to admit Somerset is a bit of a legend.How does someones' brain work when season in season out he only appears when you have a game off and then he comes on the forum totally disgusted and horrified to think the next game might be off as well! His whole raison d'etre is rain and your pitch. One word..........UNIQUE!
Bless him, he certainly gives us some entertainment on days like this when we've no game
This is laughable on a day when several other games became victims of the atrocious weather.
I don't know where you live Somerset, but our local area has suffered from flooding with people's homes put at risk.
The only disgusting disgrace is your pathetic post.
Could I ask Somerset, do you ever/actually watch football??
I used to watch Yeovil Town but I don't anymore as every time I watch them they always lose
If you want to come along to the Fleetwood game, let me know - P.M. me - and we can meet up
Doubt it, he's too busy watching the weather forecastsCould I ask Somerset, do you ever/actually watch football??

I don't want to come to the Fleetwood game because I live over 200 miles away near Yeovil in Somerset so it's too far for me
Never mind S/S you know the old saying, it never rains but it pours
On his own admission, Somerset suffers from Asperger's Syndrome. He displays the classic symptoms
- fascination with certain topics (such a pity that his is the weather in Accrington)
- difficulty with interpreting both verbal and non-verbal language (so he fails to understand humour, irony and sarcasm)
- lack of common sense
- tendency to engage in one-sided conversations (about oneself)
It is not an illness so cannot be cured.
Sadly, all our jibes and sarky comments will not make him stop. He does not understand them. I gave him the dates of the Yeovil games that had been postponed because of the weather - that had no effect. I know he is a total irritant - the only way to stop him is to remove his posts and/or ban him.
He is totally wacky and unique. Either very sad or the smartest WUM ever. I like browsing the forums and haven't seen him pop up anywhere else other than on here. Why he should rock up on the Accy forum is beyond me. Having games called off is totally frustrating for footy fans, but not really being an Accy fan I can look at this with a detached view.He gets a rise from you every time so that's probably what keeps him going. Not easy but maybe just ignore him and he might get fed up. There again this is not a normal person we are talking about so I wouldn't be so sure. Maybe just treasure him. After all you're the only forum in the whole world with you're very own SOMERSET!
EDIT. Apologies, ignore the above, just noticed that someone mentioned earlier that he has Aspergers syndrome. That explains it all. Not a very pleasant mental condition to suffer from so yes maybe best to either just ban him or play along with it now knowing the reason for it.
