    Prolonged and heavy rain all afternoon/night for Bradford. Chance it might be postponed. Again.

    Aye, I'm actually not that arsed. Wouldn't be against the weeks rest and Hammill recuperating.

    Big chance it will be called off as City's pitch can't handle a downpour.

    Could work in our favour, give the lad's a rest.

    The downpour has just this minute begun. And it's bad. If it's like this - as forecast - for the next 24 hours or so, it'll be called off.

    No. Momentum is everything. Plus it's a rare chance for us to get to a game just round the corner. Rain bugger off.

    According to the forecast its torrential all day.

    To be honest even if the pitch and stands dont flood I think it would work in our favour if the game was called off.

    High winds and torrential rain suits their game perfectly and definitely doesn't help ours. Plus if Hammills fit we dont really want to risk him on a wet pitch against a physical team.

    The lads at school just on the road from Valley Parade ......... pi55ing it down in similar quantities to the cancelled JP match.

    Selfishly, suits me if its off, working in MK after 5 months on the bench and would have been gutted to miss a game 3 miles from home.

    Bit of drizzle in Haworth at 6.45 this morning, but dry since. Let's hope they've got it wrong.

    Games never used to be postponed when it rained unless it was really, really bad. The forecast is for rain all day today, but a lot of that is showers. It's also very windy which tends to quickly clear surface water. I reckon the game will be on. So expect an announcement in the next 10 minutes saying it's postponed.

    Let's hope we get notification before 7.40 this time save us having to battle through it.

    Surely if they are prepared they have got a cover over the pitch.

    Forecast says it's coming in from West - wind really got up here in South Manchester and looking gloomy but still not raining here yet.

    It's kicked in here now but the wind is really up and - as Jay says- this might well reduce surface water.

    It's gonna be horrendous tonight if/when it's on mind!
