As another former promoter whose parents live just as close I can tell you that the decision was 100% correct. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

iainb 5,015 Posted July 13, 2021 So... now at Peterborough the match will be called off if there's light drizzle in the air or it's rained within 3 days of a scheduled meeting or if there's a dodgy forecast 36 hours out? Good luck in getting the fixtures completed. Oh and don't be surprised if they're cramming fixtures in at the end of the season Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
