Hmmmm ..... possible pitch inspection already mentioned by them, before any further rain that is forecast tomorrow too. I really hope the game is on as getting there midweek in any rearranged game is too hard for me

May as well look for something else to do tomorrow as there's no chance in hell this game is going ahead due to Hungerfords incredibly shocking pitch, carbon copy of last season in terms of playing them around this time, hopefully they call it off this evening or early tomorrow morning and not 15 mins before kick off.

After last season’s debacle, perhaps the sensible option would be to call the game off today and sooner rather than later.

Needs to be called off asap.
They come across as a glorified pub outfit.

Apparently, it's still throwing it down in Hungerford, even now. At least, if they called the game off this afternoon, we would save all or some of the coach costs we would incur, if it was left until tomorrow morning.

Did they pay our costs last Season when our Saturday game last Season was called off .... with 15 mins to go to kick off ? We didn't hear about it if they did

It was a bit like last Friday, l bet Weston-Super-Mate we're feeling a bit like us then, they probably wanted the decision made last Friday rather than the next day, the day of the game, so as to give them more time to know whats what. The boot l suppose is on the other foot now, we could do with knowing what's happening today really

Just phoned Hungerford and it’s still hammering down with rain there ! Apparently the pitch inspection is 10am tomorrow morning.

............... Apparently the pitch inspection is 10am tomorrow morning. Nonsensical. I totally agree that it’s nonsensical but when I asked the bloke on the phone he said it was a decision made by officials. He couldn’t comment on the state of the pitch as he said he couldn’t see it properly from the bar!! I explained that I hoped to be travelling from Wales and didn’t want a wasted journey. I also said that 10am was cutting it a bit fine but he said he couldn’t help me any further.. Goodness knows how people from StAlbans will be able to get there in time if it’s on!!!

It's the same situation we were in last week. We knew the game would be called off, but it needs to be done by an official. Would be good if the league could figure out a way to get an official there the night before when it's clear that the game won't go ahead.

Yeah and in our case, the snow, such an obvious situation we were in on Friday

Is a farce.
This pub outfit need to wake up.
Game should have been called off this evening.
Are they expecting a heatwave.

Let's just hope it doesn't get called off again at 2:45pm, like last season.

No, but seriously, let's just hope it doesn't. I missed that cos I was laid down with a stinking cold, and hope it never does.

Saints Starting XI vs @hungerfordtown: Snedker; McLeod-Urquhart; Bender (C); Diedhiou; Knight; Clark; Wyatt; Sambou; Da Costa; Sole; Banton.
Saints Substitutes vs @hungerfordtown: Moyo; Herd; Sanderson; Kamdjo; Bonfield (GK).
Moyo on bench. No Merson so Banton playing as a striker?

Probably our worst 45 minutes of the season. Our midfield is non existent. Depressing isn't in it.
