    Checking on my Accy and noticed Rotherham match interrupted.

    Ref taken players off after a massive downpour of rain which flooded the pitch.

    As the crow flies, I live about 5 miles away, and it's bone dry here.

    Mrs is working in the Paddy Power shop in the town centre, maybe five minutes walk away.

    Said it rained really heavily for a few minutes but little since.

    Drainage must be absolute baba at the New York.

    Haha. We'd be up before the EFL committee if it happened at Oakwell.

    I'm about the same but obviously the opposite direction as our gutters have just been overflowing the rain was that heavy.

    Hammer Rotherham with -6 points, that'll teach them to show off with their fancy sprinklers lol.
    Ohh and while they're doing that, hit Cam McGeehan with another hefty fine, for having a weird surname. :D

    Extent of just how bad their newish stadium is at dealing with 5-10 minutes of rain.

    The game shouldn't be replayed. I would love Cardiff to be relegated, but on this occasion they should be awarded the three points. It's not their fault their opponents are tinpot.
