Strange if this is true as the drainage system has been great for the last few seasons. Perhaps something got iced up.

Its stopped raining.

24 Hours to drain, and its not like the Premiership or Torquay Stockport fiascos. What with Milwall being an hour up the road.


Game on i reckon.

It might not be raining where you are, but it is still coming down at Withers. A bit less heavily I grant you, but the sky still looks full of more.

What has?

If you are suggesting this is a wind up, suit yourself.

The pitch is totally flooded. I am looking at it right now.

I am more gutted than most, having driven 80 miles down here for the game.

I hope I'm wrong, but I put chances of the game going ahead at less than 10%

Oh no, i'm just saying the pitch has been cleared of water before in time for a game to go ahead.

I worked at withdean a few years ago...

Oops sorry. Thought my integrity was being questioned!

As I said - dearly hope you are right. I can't begin to imagine what shopping related horrors my missus might have in store for me otherwise.

Afternoon people.

Sorry to tell you this, but I am looking out of my Dad's study window at the pitch, and 75% of it is currently underwater.

There is a lake stretching from one goal to the other, 40 yards wide. There is all but no chance of tomorrow's game going ahead.
Does this make your Dad a neighbour of all those SWEAT bastards? Especially that nutjob Tom Catt?

Do him. GO ON, DO THE SLAG.

At least his dad can't be Catt - he [Catt] said the new West Stand would tower over his back garden - so he wouldn't be able to see the pitch/pond.

:lolol:
