It was obvious. It should have been called off 2 hours ago

Glad i didnt go it was predictable it wasnt fit to play in hours ago stupid to start the game should of been called off by 2pm really poor choice to not postpone it today as its obvious water will lie on the pitch in driving rain some delusional thinking it even had a chance with forecast

Scored in less than 15 seconds.

Abandoned in less than 15 minutes.

Must be some kind of record!

Feel sorry for Marriott as probably the quickest goal he has ever scored will now count for nothing!

Supposed to make every effort to get the game played and we did. If only we'd had more leaf blowers....
Just say no to VAR :sentoff:

The pitch never deteriorated since kick off and the joker called it off. Just proved he was wrong allowing the kick off in the first place. Right call but at the wrong time.

Last time the club called it off early they got criticised on here and everywhere else, they made the right choice, it's down to the referee, yes when I got there and the match started it soon became a farce but let's not criticise the club they can’t win with some people!

Fair play to the ref he gave it ago.
Pretty obvious after ten minutes that the standing water was making it unplayable.
Refs can’t win they get criticism if they call games off or try to play.
