Getting gates of 1600+ at tier 7 level they are an exception which explains decision to opt out. On a personal note if Bamber Bridge mess with the 3pm kick off on a Saturday I won't be bothering. Think this is an awful decision to change kick off times for streaming. Hope large numbers of clubs opt out.

If it's pishing down with rain then the river might have a say in it.

They are due to draw a blank.

George Pratt was steady enough for Chorley but beaten by a near post run for Oxfords third.

West Ham / crystal palace deal. Came as a make weight in a deal.

There is a flood alert for the upper Ribble and hodder as far as Samlesbury. Think the Darwen goes into the Ribble. As the Ribble fills up will affect the Darwen. We need an eyeball on the outflow pipe at Ewood

1.06m at 5.45pm rising rapidly

Worth bearing in mind the river level will continue to rise for some time after it stops raining due to cumulative water run off. At 3pm just under 0.7m. Normal range peaks out at 1.25m. Above that can become problematic. Just depends how high the outflow from the ground is.

Preparing for the future then.

Probably the only way they could attract him if the wage was poor.

What about the wind?

Ridsdale?

Followed by the remnants of two hurricanes from the Caribbean and 85 mph winds.

That suggests the bookies think it is less likely now which doesn't make a lot of sense to me.

Think it was over £500,000 in the last twelve months. Still listed at Companies House as CEO.

I think if the telegraph are hoping for a reconciliation they will be very careful in what they say personally I would be pleasantly surprised if there are exposé reports.

Less politics to negotiate is a very telling phrase.

Would have to think that if you are getting thrashed every week it becomes a real test of character to be turning out each week. There is an inevitable fall off in numbers and there will come a stage where it will be difficult to put a team out.

To be hoped the EFL don't take a look at Test and County Cricket Board where clubs have points deducted for sub standard pitches.

This can could well be kicked down the road for months in the hope that by the last few weeks of the season neither club is involved in either the promotion or relegation stakes before they get off the fence to make a decision

Chorley have spent money on their pitch within the last three years.

3500-4000 ish

They need to invest in a super soaker like the one Lancashire cricket have. Get it on before the game starts and at half time and that game gets finished. But then we're calling for investment so that's not happening.

It's already at Powerlessness in my book.
