    Why is it Premier League games never get abandoned for the weather? Is it a different kind of rain that falls on those grounds?

    They have more money so invest in better pitches with better drainage

    I remember going on a supporters bus to Newport many, many years ago, and the game was called off just as we arrived at the ground.
    The team bus passing us in the opposite direction was a bit of a giveaway.
    Anyway we had a good session in Chepstow as a second prize !
