    Heavy rain forecast until and including Tuesday.
    I’d say the game could be in doubt again

    No sign of rain for Bradford on the BBC 5 day forcast?

    It’s been coming down heavy for the last few hours but has now stopped. Looking further ahead, I can't see further rain until Tues morning, but then it will be on and off all day

    Only needs a downpour for an hour on Tuesday and the pitch will be unplayable.
    Plus with it being Portsmouth they’ll have to make an early decision

    Isn’t it getting to the stage where we could get fined for this? Or worse still, docked points?
    I’m presuming there must be some contract signed, that the pitch must be playable.

    Otherwise, what happens if our old drains finally pack up altogether and no games can be played at VP? Totally messes up the remaining fixtures and creates carnage.

    I’m presuming we’d have to play our games at another venue. Yep I know it’s hapoened before, but this time round it’s because our ground is unfit due to substandard maintenance. I.E our fault.

    Push comes to shove in the last two weeks we wouldnplay Tuesday and Thursday at Huddersfield or Elland Road.

    Highly unlikely though as this game hasn’t got a change of being called.

    At least 800 coming up from down south, I'm looking forward to tomorrow (for some reason).

    It could be quite a spectacle, insofar as atmospheres go. But still expecting a Pompey victory. City just can't deliver back to back performances again, yet. :(

    Any pics of the pitch? We have intermittent rain showers throughout the day not heavy, but with our pitch you never know.

    No rain for 2 days here in Rovrum. According to the T&A website - just light scattered showers around Bradford, but with 15 mph winds, I would hope the pitch is OK ?
