Sorry about that.

Fucking disgrace.
Only game off.
New stadium, shit drainage, and 5 trying to push the water off the pitch.

Thanks Colchester.
Good to see you mate but what a fucking farce!

Huge amounts of extra time being played at the end of the 1st half.

Stoke have just scored in the 45+11 min!

Well that was a complete bummer and I'm as gutted about it as the next man but I'm really can't see how anyone is to blame or what else could be done. There's no way they could have played today, it's just bastardly freakish weather...

Agree to an extent about the weather but non league teams around a similar area managed to get games on

They have changed the rules/system this year - instead of adding on a flat 30 for every significant incident (Sub, penalty, goal, injury etc.) they are adding on the actual time taken during that period where the game is not live - so expect to see around 10mins added time in games where there have been lots of significant incidents.

Then they must have had less rain, it was very patchy. Southend are playing but they wouldn't be if it was like it was at Colchester...it was absolutely torrential, never seen anything like it in August. When people get frustrated they need someone to blame but there is no one to blame in this instance...

Didn't we have a friendly game v Norwich called off in August mid 2000's because of a waterlogged pitch pre-match🤔

Our coaches got to Aldershot before the game was called off, that was a miserable coach trip.

This has overtones of the last minute watrlogged pitch at Exeter a few years ago.
I had also arrived at the ground before that game was called off too!

That happened twice with fixtures at St James Park I was at the ground with HerthaB for the earlier game too!

Quite possibly but don't remember it. The earliest one I remember apart from today was the Rovers abandonment a few years ago which was very early in the season...September time?
