All Activity

The complete lack of any communication from the club is appalling today. Just tell people what’s happening for God’s sake! Even if no decision has been made and we are waiting for a further pitch inspection then tell the people this. Oxford is a hell of a drive and they deserve to be kept up to date to inform their decision of whether the drive or not. Travelling in this weather is not without any risk and surely it’s their duty to keep people informed. Incredibly amateur and the overwhelming impression is that they are choosing to ignore the situation to save face.

Metaphor for the club under the Rao's? Crossed my mind that some wag might find it fun to stuff something up that pipe.

Tronstad will be on or above that too, was signed on a free (which generally means higher wages etc) from a top tier Dutch team (think he also played in Europe for them), well before the taps were turned off

maybe will fund a rental of another big sponge, the rest will be either pocketed, or go on the electric bill

If pitch inspections have already taken place or are taking place - surely it's against EFL regs or protocol not to inform both sets of fans of that , otherwise how can anyone travelling from any distance away make an informed decision whether to travel? It's a brave person who travels up from Oxford this afternoon. Unless they're travelling in Ossy Dave's Ferrari of course! 🙂

Bamber bridge pitch is waterlogged match off tonight. I would put our pitch on the same level these days.

Hope not

Get in early for the cap presentation tonight

Supposed to clear up now and no rain yesterday, I can see this going ahead

Met office now predicting 40% chance of rain through until 5pm. Does the high winds have an effect on the water on the pitch at all?

My boss said that in the team meeting yesterday "we need to find you another club to support".

For me, my only choice is to not support the club, as it is.

Might have spoken too soon. just nipped out to do the school run and it’s pissing down again (Lower Darwen).

Eflood Park init?

Why on earth aren’t the club saying anything? Even if they think the game will go ahead, communicate it. How are the Oxford fans meant to decide whether to travel up. The lack of communication since Saturday has been disgraceful. No excuse. If I could choose another club to support, I would.

Presumably it will have been checked at 10,11,12,1,2.....

Atlast I reason for me to chant John Kettley, John kettley, John kettley, Oh John kettley !

Seems unnecessary to check the pitch at 3 if you're going to reassess it at 5 anyway.

3pm , 5pm

Bit of blue sky coming through now, rain was torrential an hour or two ago, but seems to have stopped. Presuming it doesn't start up again now, there are literally no excuses for this match not to go ahead.

Was there a pitch inspection at 2pm??

Lol, BRFCS is now basically the Met Office 😂
