Let no one say opening the river in the town centre has nothing to do with flooding in Rochdale town centre.... |  |

Just popped into the town centre on the way back from friends to have a look
The Roch is pretty high up the walls with loads of debris floating down. Seems to be coping ok at the moment but don't know how much more it could take before there's a breach |  |

If it goes, will be the 3rd time in a few years, Asda will be next 🤨
With the new shopping experience, rather than the “Rock” maybe it should be called “The Waves”, can’t use “The Beach” that’s already copy-write to Spotland Stadium & they will need it in a fortnight...

Rochdale had the highest rainfall in last 24 hours in UK, almost twice as much as next highest place. |  |

That being the case have we overreacted to the postponement would any pitch withstand that amount of rain? |  |
| This is not the time for bickering.

Possibly. Will have to see what happens in future games in the season. Specifications for a suitable pitch need to take in to account what is expected in rainfall in Rochdale. | |

Highest rainfall in 24 hour period - yes, on Sunday
Rainfall in the 24 hours preceding Saturday's kick off was pretty normal | |

Carol who the BBC breakfast weather said that a month worth of rain had fallen on Rochdale over the weekend...
A few days before hand Rochdales temp was 33.8c and then a months worth of rain a few days later..
Crazy extremes. |  |

For reference:
Dale’s game abandoned after rain from late morning on Saturday.
Hornets game played after weather improved sufficiently enough to ensure the pitch was fit.
Heavy rain returned on Sunday resulting in issues around the region.
None of the above really changes anything with regards to establishing what work has been done on the pitch, why the contractors changed, what issues remain and whether they will affect us going forward. Even if we’d had a great weekend of weather and beaten Bradford 10-0, those questions, amongst others, require answers. |  |

A complete aside, but i see your creepy new avatar at last! Dunno why it's taken a few days to change on my screen(s)
Can just see you nodding like a donkey if the "exceptional rain" excuse is wrongly put forward tonight, when we all know it wouldn't be true. No need to over-react to this comment... | |

On a positive note the pitch looks well on the twitter photo posted this am.
Perhaps things are not as bad as we thought? | | | |

It would be good to get a frank and honest assessment from a groundsperson who was recently involved with our pitch and its associated work. Obviously a current employee would feel they couldn't speak out.
If only we knew someone who had recently left the club... [Post edited 29 Jul 2019 11:52]

Depends what "month" they're referring to though I suppose? | | | |

Maybe you just need drains that can be reached in your garden(s)? | |
