Fingers crossed but I’ve probably cursed it now so, incoming announcement. Me too having looked at the forecast which shows very little rain today. Just hope the floods on the roads have had chance to subside. Tamworthram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On top of that my Tesco shopping got cancelled because the driver got himself stuck somewhere so I'm now having to ration bog roll. I know there are bigger humanitarian issues in the world but today is shaping up to be an absolute rotter. Sounds, quite literally, sh 1t. Surely you will spend hours battling to get to game, for it to be called off at 2.55. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerry Daly Posted October 21, 2023 Share Posted October 21, 2023 I don’t know where all this certainty that it will be off is coming from. The only game that’s off so far is Ross County v St Mirren. Far worse weather up there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ilkestonian Posted October 21, 2023 Share Posted October 21, 2023 One of my mates can't make it today because of the weather so I have a spare adult ticket for sale if anyone is traveling down without a ticket and wants one -£24 - I'm already at Birmingham so probably best to meet in Shrewsbury if anyone is interested. kash_a_ram_a_ding_dong 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nick_d Posted October 21, 2023 Share Posted October 21, 2023 From Shrewsbury Forum: 'The pitch drains well, only in doubt if we get heavy rain in the morning / mid day. Todays rain wont be an issue, it's looking like less rain tomorrow.' 'Think the pitch will be fine but for those travelling in on Saturday keep an eye on the travel news for flood issues, trains into Shrewsbury from Wolverhampton and Cardiff badly affected by flooding today and some Shrewsbury town centre car parks look likely to be closed on Saturday' https://blueandamber.proboards.com/thread/106397/derby-pre-match cstand 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tamworthram Posted October 21, 2023 Share Posted October 21, 2023 Shrewsbury Town put a couple of messages on X an hour ago. One was just the usual match day release and another was about the entrance to the local park and ride car park. So, I’d be surprised if it’s called off now. I’ll be setting off quite a bit earlier than previously planned due to the likelyhood of standing water in places that is bound to slow traffic down. Looking at the AA site, it also looks like there is a bit of an issue on one of the roundabouts on the A5 that may cause a delay (having said that, my SatNav that has live traffic updates is still saying just less than an hour from Tamworth). Drive safely everyone. cstand, Hector was the best, Miggins and 2 others 1 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
