Same thing happened at Home Park for the Crewe game. Ref gave the ground staff until a certain time to sort out some problem areas and he'd pass it fit. Of course we all know other staff from the club gave them a hand and succeeded. Hopefully the same will happen today. The last thing the team (and fans) need is another Tuesday night up north.
Referee Carl Boyeson conducted two pitch inspections with player safety in mind - one at 10.30am, and another at 12.35pm, and concluded that the pitch, although not in the best condition, is not unsafe.
