It’s going to be a wet wet wet wet wet wet match 

[Davefevs]

Can’t believe there were floods in Truro yesterday, saw it on the news.  We were 5 miles north…and didn’t see a drop of rain, nor a black cloud.

Clean sheet and a what?

is this an actual English word or just some random thing you have made up?

Could be an opportunity to draw something out of Wells.

So if the commentator mentions JC playing for Luton tonight he might not be referring to Jordan Clark

Exactly

Was it not said on RB last night that we have been given 8 penalties in 4 seasons?

That would be my team if James and Williams aren’t fit. Naismith has played defensive midfield before 

One thing we have improved is defending from set pieces. Think this team would struggle in that regard.

No chance of a penalty being given to us, but on a slippery surface there is a fair chance of one being given against us.

It’s just missing Martin from that perspective isn’t it?

Yes that’s what I thought

If the rain keeps up and the rain keeps coming off the roof like that, H & S will call it off.

Why is Match Centre spelt incorrectly on the app?

I think I can count on the fingers of one hand in the last 40 years a match has been called off for rain.

The pitch will be fine, the issue is the Luton bench drowning.

It's what you get when you admit defeat and buy some adult nappies.

Watford at home around xmas years ago. I seem to remember being in the ground when we heard it was off. Notts County one night match going way back, abandoned. Or was that an afternoon?

Boxing Day, was well annoyed. Sat in the Atyeo. There was a game called off in January one year because of a frozen pitch. I was in North St in a cafe and luckily heard that it had been postponed

Yes, he is very good in our area defending set pieces, often wins the first ball. Is it enough to keep him in the team, that is debatable ?

Watford was called off just before kick-off - it was bloody torrential mind. They played a weakened side in the rearranged game as we were so bad and we beat them 2-0.

The County game was called off at HT with the score 1-0 to them IIRC. What I do remember though is that their goal was scored by Paul Heffernan.

American English, no excuse for using it here and very annoying.

No it just a word that only applies to the opposition!
