Anybody know the state of their pitch? it was like a ploughed field last season.
Heavy rain forecast today in Lanc's, and considering they play on it today, could be a bit of a mess, although weather expected to be a bit better tomorrow.

I'm just between Preston and Blackburn and the weather is ok here. Not even raining and looks clearer still going West.
Stanleys game is off basically because drainage is so bad there and they have had heavy rain this morning. I'm hoping Blackpool is fine. Not worried yet.

Workington pitch terrible today but match on though Townsley not happy. Wouldn't have been any good for Yeovil game tomorrow though by the sound of it. Would Derwent Park have been a possibility?

Of course but they never bothered of entertaining it. Rather gives the local economy of blackpool the beer money that locally ffs.

For the last time, Derwent Park is incapable of hosting a competitive football match without massive improvements to the stadium.
It wasn't considered because it simply isn't an option.

Borough Park was an option but do you really want to play there after a home game shat on the pitch today and a reduced (2000 or less) capacity crowd?

I'd rather we played a home match at Plymouth than Derwent Park.

In fact I'd rather play a home game in Syria than Derwent f***ing park.

Has anybody at all mentioned it other than Mark? Seems strange to be so hell bent on it when nobody seems to be agreeing.
Arise, Sir Jimmy

I think it should have been played closer if possible. Derwent park is only a couple of miles from me but it isn't a football ground so I'm not surprised it wasn't considered. I didn't think there'd be as many at Blackburn as there was so hopefully there'll be a decent crowd there tomorrow if it's on.

They might as well as played on the beach, bobble a lot surface was a real leveller and played right into Yeovil's hands. Which bright spark decided to shift a game to a pitch that is a paddy field st the best of times and 24 hours after a game has been played on it!

Why couldn't we have played yesterday at Newcastle, Blackburn or Preston? If we lose the replay and they go to Old Trafford, it could be an expensive mistake

Actually, Yeovil tried to play a bit of football on it first-half and did okay, created a few chances. Second-half they started to go a bit more direct and got some success mind.

Not a great surface but considering they'd had a game on it 24 hours before, it held up well.

I don't go along with the pitch/conditions etc being a great leveller theory. Quality should win out over any sort of conditions and Yeovil passed and retained the ball much better than we did for most of the game and fully deserved the draw..
