Rumours on Walsall forum an inspection is planned.

I'm not far from the ground and thought it would be fine when I woke up,just driven to Chesterton and back and hit 5 flooded roads, the road between talke roundabout and parkhall, and the main road through bradwell will be closed soon I'm sure. Its the worst I've ever seen round here.


Wouldn't be surprised at all if it ends up being off.

 

[Wootball]

We've decided not to travel. I live in Newcastle-under-Lyme but work in Crewe and the drive home at 1am last night was treacherous - and it hasn't stopped pissing it down since then. TV job for me today.

 

[BarraMatt]

Our game off. Absolutely stupid why this couldn't have been done last night.

 

[leedsvaliant]

The game is going ahead by the looks of it. Rain has died off and it's not as windy as forecast.

Edit: Just confirmed by the club that it's on.

 

[Jimmy Anderson]

The game is going be on at vale but think the attendance may take a slight hit with some fans deciding not wanting to attend and travel in this weather. We only count what turns up so we could have sold say 11k including Walsall 2800 but give out 6000 with 2000 Walsall. I'm not saying there's going be 6000 there by the way it will be more than that but ive seen a few posts saying we have decided not go.

Our second late postponement after Fleetwood the other week ffs. Two really long journeys, so far from ideal for players and fans who already were there / had set off but is what it is.

 

[jacobncfc]

Our game is off, scoreboard’s broken in the wind and might kill a player or something.

Games on i think from what I'm hearing

 

[valefan16]

Strikerless wonders! Odd one but Byers making the bench is massive news.

 

[SaddlerJonny]

We are unchanged from Tuesday. Jellis unable to make the bench, which is a shame.

I’m guessing we’ve gone with three number 10/wide men up top to keep it on the deck so the conditions! If we can get 30 out of Byers though il be chuffed.

Nonsttikers playing means no chance. 10 nil Walsall win.

Apparently there's a pitch/ground inspection at the Alex right now. Half an hour before kick off.

Looks like the game's on, I'm told they've just opened the turnstiles.

Bricking it coz you're absolutely terrified of our lone striker with 0 goals this season. TERRIFIED!

5-0 Crewe.

Ronan Curtis was a 1 in 4 man at Pompey.

He’s playing the high press

 

[Jimmy Anderson]

Sad pathetic virgins letting flares off

 

[Ainsty]

The game is on at Wetherby Road this afternoon. It's a bit windy so Londoners might want to bring a big coat.

Shorts and t-shirt for you then, mate?

Part timers these Yorkies. Geordies would be down to their underpants.

 

[Wootball]

Glad I stayed at home instead of watching this crap in person! 0-0 at half time and both teams look utterly inept. It isn't helped by the wind and weather of course.

 

[SaddlerJonny]

Got to say this hasn't exactly been a thriller

 

[Stocky]

Notts County not playing because their scoreboard has broken.

What is going on?

 

[valefan16]

Farcical game in these conditions.

We have got the wind second half at least behind us.

 

[kieran_vale]

That was scrappy as hell that half, lots of effort from both teams but little quality if any at all. Conditions the overriding factor.

See if it changes assuming we have the wind behind us now in the second half (watch the fucking thing change around now).

 

[dannyc5]

It might be an idea for Crewe to play with a midfield at some point today. Bradford overloading us in there.

 

[Super_horns]

Got to say this hasn't exactly been a thriller

I suspect most games won’t be .

 

[クレイグ]

1-0 Crewe. Game over. Alexander out.

 

[Wootball]

Lovely stuff, 1-0 through Bogle. Bradford just not bothering with marking or stopping crosses, that'll do nicely.
