Accrington game called off at HT

Called off for waterlogged pitch. Both managers not happy about desicion. Ref says it was a safety reason
My guess is he was afraid of someone drowning

It is only 10 years or so since our pitch would have been flooded and that corner between the CFS and BL would have been under several inches of water.

We live in a different financial world now from the Accys and Horse botherers - long may it continue.

I heard the boring Coleman complaining that it should have been plaid. Had there been a serious injury who would the player/ club blame, the Manager? I'll let you decide.

Plaid? I prefer Gingham, myself.

:D Haven't heard Gingham mentioned since Bill Hicks.

Now that takes me back.
