Take a look at how much rain fell this afternoon - how is a League Two pitch, even one which is as good and well looked after as Stanley's, meant to cope with that?

After last season's debacle when it was called off at 2.30pm with a 3.00pm kick-off, I think we should be grateful that the decision has been made early to prevent the majority of both sets of supporters from travelling and wasting their time.

Go to the club site and look at how much standing water there is on the pitch. Now, imagine that on top of the covers. You'd do well to move the covers without the water spilling onto the pitch.

I'm sure that Buzzer will have tried his hardest to get the game on but he's a one-man team and can only do so much. I'm not sure what you expect him or the club to do when you get a monsoon throwing 10mm of water onto the pitch in the space of about three hours.

League One and Championship pitches would have struggled to cope with that, never mind Stanley's.

If the club had done more to get the game on by covering the pitch prior to the rainstorm, the game would have more than likely been on and I wouldn't have posted on here.
