It is due to stop early tomorrow morning, but I just hope it isn't already waterlogged.

im fairly certain the pitch will be waterlogged now unless the drainage has been sorted out which i doubt.

Rain should clear by 7.00am tomorrow, at this time of year and with the wind it should hopefully dry out enough during the morning, also I'd imagine they would have covered some of it.

The drainage was all replaced last summer so hopefully it should be working. It looked fine last night, no standing water or waterlogging. If the rain clears overnight like its planned to, I think it should be ok

Went up to the stadium today to collect a few tickets and I asked the man what the pitch is like after all this rain and he said the pitch is fine but around the pitch is flooded so hopefully we might be ok

I was up there again this afternoon. Both maintenance gates were open to improve the air flow but it really needs to stop raining first.

Stopped over here in Stockton about an hour ago, just hope it stays like this overnight and we should be fine. What's it like in Darlo currently?

Good drying wind still blowing.
