    Seen plenty of games on worse pitches.
    Looks like Wembley compared to the old Baseball Ground or Maine Road

    Looks like a pitch from the Steven Age.

    Tbh might be good if it's off.

    Gives Stuart the whole week to work with the team.

    Definitely a snow risk but it's not as dramatic as it looks. Today's map is below for comparison, so marginally worse than today. It still it varies locally. Derby/Nottingham had 3/4 of an hour of snow after lunch today even though that was in a lower risk area. They can't call it off because it might snow. They'll just have to wait and see what we get, although a wet pitch ahead of time might tip the decision.

    More up to date photos with more water settling on the pitch. Coming down heavy again out there now.

    Agree if it’s played on it will just make it worse for the rest of the season. Needs an early inspection to save Stevenage travelling up.

    Any quantity of rain overnight and tomorrow the game could be off, the drainage is poor and the pitch wont be able to absorb it, as well as letting Stevenage fans know early enough so they don't travel.

    Why have you got a pic of Neil Warnock just out of curiosity?

    You're right, the thread has drifted off-topic. All of the views on the expectations attached to McCall this season are now in a new thread.

    https://bantamtalk.com/index.php?threads/expectations-of-mccall.3636/

    I struggled to think of an alternative title!
