    Got to admit there was no way you could play football in those conditions

    And the right decision was taken

    Shame I didn't go with oakwell busses

    could have free travel to the rearranged game

    But not to worry diesel prices are low at the moment

    Onto Saturday

    You wasted journey redss

    Didn't you go for a curry instead? No trip to Bradford is ever wasted if you do that!

    Compensated by who?
    The club? Bradford? the FA? God?

    I don't think anyone could have predicted the deluge that came down just before kick off.

    I feel for the fans who went, but I don't think they can really complain, it was the correct decision.
    Chalk it down to an act of nature....

    Bradford should compensate those who went. Despite the weather I was surprised it was called off. On club tweet saying kick off delayed by five minutes and then another saying it's off. Do they not have weather forecasts in Bradford? If they had delayed it for 20 minutes, thirty max it could have been on as not long after kick off was due it stopped raining. They could have done a good job getting as much water off the pitch as possible. I'm surprised in this day and age football clubs don't own a cover to put over the pitch like tennis tournaments use to keep the courts dry in rain delays. They don't use power or anything and the cost of one would be way less than risking a match being rearranged.
