Seems that the weather improves the further south you go.  No rain in Alty now and does not seem to be any in Birmingham, but Yorkshire looks bad.

According to Zoe its alright in the Midlands PLUS at about 1pm Tamworth saw no reason as to why it should be off


I got the train back yesterday (i know, odd with Tamworthless being the nearest Conference Ground to me) and the weather was fine, it only got worse weather the further North you got (surprise , surprise). Fields were flooded from Stafford upwards but before then not must in the form of 'standing rain' at all

Wind should blow it all over then and blow excess water off the pitch ?

Rain started about an hour ago....if it carries on like this I'd say there's little chance of the match being on, especially given the state of the Tamworth pitch on Saturday, let alone the car park...

Lets try and stay positive then at the moment.

Could do without everyone canceliing off the coach really on the advise of someone with no connections to Tamworth.


We don't know what work they have done on the pitch since Saturday either

Rain easing off now...but still very windy. I've not heard of a match being called off for excessive wind though. Snowdome may not survive the night......let's hope
