    So are you working tomorrow? A lot of people take the few days off between Christmas and New Year. Quite a few companies shut down.
    If you aren’t working you will have loads of time For food and drinks, plus you can have a long lie in on Saturday morning.

    10% chance of rain according to the met office and a clear looking live weather map yet it’s been absolutely torrential for the past hour.

    I wonder if the damage has already been done with the pitch cut up from Tuesday’s match and yesterday’s torrential downpour.

    Wouldn’t be surprised if at least a precautionary inspection is announced

    Forecast for the next 24 hours doesn't look too bad. Benefit of it being an evening game rather than 3pm is that it gives Mick Doyle and his team a full day to work their magic and on the pitch. The wind should help dry the surface before the rain later in the day is forecast.

    Were you there Boxing Day? Did you see how well the pitch played? No divots, nothing. Same today, hope you’re going.

    Hmmm so we’ve had more or around the same rainfall this week than before the Salford game.

    Pitch was in great condition on Tuesday.
    The wind and sun today will see it on no worries.

    There was continuous heavy rain on the day of the Salford game no time for the pitch to drain today is different

    Can’t one fixate over something in life more important than the weather ? It’s pretty tedious.

    Calm down old boy, you’ll do yourself some mischief.
    Weather will never concern you wrapped up warm on iFollow. Did you get an HDMI cable for Xmas?
