Heavy rain forecast for the next couple days possible pitch inspection?
@hemelwanderer Pitch inspection scheduled for tomorrow at 8:45am. Presumably timed before the team head down there to train tomorrow morning.
Pitch inspection 8.45am Friday morning because the team travel on Friday
I'm travelling down to Torbay this evening regardless, as have arranged to visit and stay with family, and could do with the break anyway for a couple of days, which will be a tonic regardless of the weather and if there is football or not!

Good on them doing a pitch inspection early doors. Should the game succumb to the rain then a long midweek trip to Torquay the back end of the season could be on the cards!
Next available midweek for both clubs is 24th March
General consensus seems to be the game is more likely to be off rather than on.
If it does go ahead I think it’ll be a 2 all draw.
@calvertskans A lovely Spring evening and just 2 days shy of my birthday too - perfect!
Match postponed following a Friday morning pitch inspection

This means we play 5 straight home games! I wonder if that's ever happened before at Dorking...
Also means 8 games on 3G pitches in a row as well.

Really wish they'd do a home ticket bundle (multiple home games, small discount)
