    If this rain continues, surely it will be called off?

    Weather forecast for the Shrewsbury area https://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/sy2 Looks like it will keep raining lightly for until early tomorrow morning then a bit of sleet/rain early Saturday for the rest of the day so as long of their drainage is ok it should be ok. They played at home the other week when there was all the rain so must have a decent drainage system.

    Shrewsbury, like Stafford (where I am), is sitting just south of the rain belt and, therefore, has had a mostly dry day today, so far. We are expecting a bit of overnight rain, then a dry Friday. Saturday, itself, doesn't look so good, but I'd be surprised if this game was at risk. It's going to be cold though.

    I think it maybe you who needs to start being realistic. Rupp will not sell for less than he paid so if we stay in this division he stays unless someone stumps up. That is the realism which you need to get used too plus if rupp stays so does Rhodes. But I'm sure your toys will be out of your pram with the failure quotes but in real life these things happen get used to it.

    No one has said he would sell for less than he paid.

    However, football owners have sold for less than they've paid though so it's not unrealistic to think a football owner wouldn't.

    It's been peeing down, here in Rotherham since it awoke me at 01.30 this morning - and showing NO signs of easing up. I know Shropshire is not Yorkshire, but this is 'blanket rain', not isolated.
    If it continues into tomorrow, I can see a number of games being rained off.

    Who owns the ground and why did they acquire the ground?

    Been dry all day here in Birmingham. Will be much the same in Shrewsbury. Local forecast for Friday is dry as well. Match should be on.

    Forecast is -1C overnight tonight with rain from 7.00 am becoming heavy and falling throughout the game turning to sleet and possibly snow after half time. Take your scarf and gloves!!

    Conditions for the match don't look great but dry and sunny here at the moment, the golden hues of autumn glistening in the sunshine

    Like football, the weather too is a 'funny old game'.
    As has been much publicised, Sheffield and Rotherham suffered somewhat yesterday. My leafy Village on the outskirts is now so bright, peaceful and calm - one would not suspect there was such a downpour here, yesterday.
    The forecast is due to change here, locally - as it will for other locations, too. Be prepared, and DO dress warmly, for tomorrows match. A flask of Bovril isn't just for 'gimmers', ya know ! ;)
