well it's still dry here - hasn't rained for a couple of days. according to the forecast for my postcode, it's dropping no lower than 2 tonight and will be 4-5 in the middle of the day tomorrow...unless we reschedule it for f***ing july, i don't see how they can have a better chance of getting it on.
ok...from their forum: "Heard there is a precautionary inspection planned for 11;15am tomorrow, the good news is as of today 2.30pm the pitch is in playable condition, the problem areas in front of the changing rooms are under covers to prevent frost, and the areas that were waterlogged have been dug out and relaid today. Very hopeful that the game will go ahead unless we have torrential rain, heavy snow, deep frost or fog."
the forecast doesn't suggest we're getting any of those, so fingers crossed.

That all sounds pretty positive, exile - especially the news that the Avenue have frost covers... A most welcome report by County Heaven's West Yorkshire correspondent!

Light sleet flurries over there, apparently - but no problems with the pitch anticipated by Avenue.
Hopefully, not a case of famous last words...!
