LaticsPete Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 Wolves fans getting twitchy on their forum about possible problems with rain putting match in doubt. Forecast I've seen for Oldham is dry today. What's the local opinion on conditions there?
Daboke Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 If we played on Saturday we will play today. Also - as a note... Did anyone notice the change in weather during our comeback? The skies were very pleasantly ominous (oxymoron??) Dull and grey over Rochdale Road end with pink and blue skies over Chaddy.
jsslatic Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 We don't get games called off for a waterlogged pitch any more, do we?
4froale Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 our pitch has taken a lot of :censored: weather and games have always been on, no doubt in my mind tonights game will be on
bluehobbit Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 what a bunch of soft arses - its rained fairly heavy over night and a bit this morning but no danger of game being off unless it does that from now till kick off
MAC0AFC Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 our pitch is one of the best in the league.. can cope with rain much better then wolves (after seeing them away twice) their pitch was awful! can't remember the last time we had a game called off for rain?? only time it's been called off of recent times is for a frozen pitch
LaticsPete Posted January 28, 2014 Author Posted January 28, 2014 Thanks colleagues. Dry here in North Yorks at present but thought I'd check.
100milesaway Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 Thanks colleagues. Dry here in North Yorks at present but thought I'd check. Pete, It may be dry in your bit of North Yorkshire, but it's chucking it down in our bit. We will phone the club before leaving at about 4. You going?
LaticsPete Posted January 28, 2014 Author Posted January 28, 2014 Pete, It may be dry in your bit of North Yorkshire, but it's chucking it down in our bit. We will phone the club before leaving at about 4. You going? Yes - going to have a chippy tea in Shaw beforehand ! Think rain may be heading east so may get your wetness in the next hour or so. Have a good journey
losesome Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 Cant be any worse than when we played at their place , It was that bad the ref couldn't see Montano to book him !!!!!!!!!!!

But at home, i can't remember one in my time watching Latics.

The skies were very pleasantly ominous (oxymoron??) Dull and grey over Rochdale Road end with pink and blue skies over Chaddy. At times in the second half it appear as if an Instagram filter had been applied to the game, there was a yellowish hue to what has happening on the pitch.
bluehobbit Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 Yeah the lighting and cloud cover was weird 2nd half. Wish I could have taken some photos
Pine Villains Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 there was a yellowish hue to what has happening on the pitch. that'll be the bentines kicking in.
rudemedic Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 that'll be the bentines kicking in. But be careful a bad batch of those made me feel like I'd just had a fortnight in bad balloon.
al_bro Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 The pitch drains very well these days. (we may even have the sprinklers on tonight!!!). Port Vale, Stevenage and Mansfield are off.
