A saturated pitch at London Road has put the game in doubt.
Perhaps another week of inactivity will not do any harm. Our next game will be the Millers at the WHCS.

Well I'll be p'ssed off if it's cancelled - I've bought all my tickets now, and the supercheap train tickets are non-refundable 
Worse still, if they don't call it off before 9am on Saturday, I'll already be en route - might have to find a London game to do in that case - West Ham v Swansea catches the eye... |  |

Wessex - pitch inspection at London Road tomorrow morning and a decision will be made then.
Without questioning your judgement about a London match, you may wish to also consider:
Fulham v Southampton
or
QPR v Burnley
We could be heading for a minor fixture congestion at Colchester but I would rather play when the pitches are less heavy and somewhat drier (better for our passing game).
Peterbore are clearly trying to get Tomlin back for the Col U game when it is rearranged!
Safe journey whichever game you decide upon.

Reckon I might be lucky to get into Loftus Rd or Craven Cottage, but having realised the 'appy 'ammers are a lunchtime kick-off, those might be the only decent options....
...whatever I do, I'm pretty resigned to the U's being off  | |

Pitch inspection now scheduled for tomorrow morning.
Weather forecast for Peterborough is light rain between 2pm and 10pm then showers overnight. Oh dear! |  |

BBC weather forecast, notoriously shite, has rain for most of today in Pbore, but seven hours of heavy rain from around 4pm. |  | | |

Just spoken to a work colleague, currently on a train from Peterborough to Boston. Absolutely persisting down at the moment. | |

Yeah, just saw on the OMB 
Bit of a quandary now - Hammers is a lunchtime kick-off, and both Fulham and QPR are for all intents and purposes sold out. I'd get into Millwall, but do I really want to? | |

As options go it is, in my humble opinion, somewhat unattractive.
Very few league games in London on Saturday but Conference South action available at Staines and Sutton.
I assume train disruption is not a problem? I suspect you reside to the east of the reservoir formerly known as Somerset... | |

Go for non-league Wessex and let us know about it!!
You'll not regret it and you'll save a few quid too!!!
Whalers - as ever the indiginous Somerset folk [I worked with 'em for 22 years] are moaning. The Somerset Levels always do what they're doing at the mo'. Muchelney was often cut-off when I lived there and the A361 often impassable, especially around Langport. True it's worse this time but they'd not live anywhere else if you asked 'em. They like a good old moan! If the farmers kept their rhynes [local name for a special kind of peat-ditch which is all over] cleared as they did scores of years back when they employed more local workers the water would have somewhere to go too! Historically the Levels were much wetter than now at one time [hence "Isle of Avalon"] and the sea came way inland. The pubs will be doing nicely............and boy, after 5 years on Alderney and now here do I miss Somerset's principle saving grace.....their excellent micro breweries!!!
Anyway - hope you find a worthwhile game Wesser
And for what it's worth it started raining here in December, is still raining and I've a £2 K bill now for roof repairs!!
Oh and whilst I am being sort of chatty - AFCMorrant!!
You don't need to trust BBC weather. I learned on Alderney to use a single website which they all use there where several of their lives depend upon it at times.
So.......I still use xc.weather.com which is very accurate, often to within 2-3 hours.
It's been spot on again today allowing this artist formerly known as Somersetbarside & AlderneyCUFC to go out drawing this morning because I knew it would be dry, thus permitting me to develop the picture here in my dry studio this afternoon whilst the torrent is falling.
Give the site a try.
No more blathering - up the U's. Have we signed anyone? |  |

No disrespect meant to the former or current denizens of the Somerset Levels, but with my day job hat on I'd love to seen the Levels return to their former state, dry in the summer and flooded in the wet seasons - made for a much more interesting and diverse landscape. Bizarrely in a way, but the best flood defence they have these days is the embanked M5 corridor, okay, so Bridgwater and everywhere west are goners, but the rest will be okay. It wasn't a tsunami, despite what anyone on t'internet might say, but this woodcut of the 1607 floods says it all...
I have decided on Millwall v Reading, and I'm going in with the 'Ding - fecking hate Millwall, so I'll have no qualms about cheering loudly as Reading (hopefully) spank their fat racist arses...
..whether I get home in one piece remains to be seen. | |

Is there any chance either Shrews and PBoro will be reset for March? (more likely sometime in Feb eh?) .. would be amazing to see another tie (when cross the pond) r that was sewn into March  |  |
