So, do we think it'll be on tomorrow given the amount of rain ☔ or will we be going there on Tuesday and postponing poor old Dorking for the third time?!

If it's not been called off by 2pm it still could be!

I was beginning to think we'd organised a boycott and I didn't know.

I'm expecting us to win if it's on. We are better than we were last season.

Just as I was heading off to the station to try my luck on the trains.

May as well settle in for the pm and have a sleep.

Everywhere is like a rice field and more rain to come. I think it will be difficult to play our normal game if it does go ahead tomorrow

Is this it?

I've not kept abreast of the severity of the weather, so are we sure that the match will be on tomorrow?

I don't think we are. The Shay certainly has had 'previous' for postponements in the past. I think it's had a bit of a tart up in the last few years so things might have changed for the better?

Is there going to be a pitch inspection today or is it definitely on?

I remember being surprised the New Year's Day game was on last year, given the weather we'd had. Pitch was heavy from memory.

Forecast pretty dry(ish) for the remainder of the day, so they should have a decent idea based on the current state of the ground up there.

They seem pretty confident that it's going ahead.
