Heavy rain tomorrow morning and gale force winds during the game. Could it be called off? Strong winds always ruin a game.
From memory when we beat them 5-1 it was stormy weather and the ball kept getting stuck in the mud for Febian Brandy to run onto and score.

Every cloud
No it didnāt. We just had a team of proper footballers who didnāt let a poor surface get in the way of passing the ball to each other.

It was a really weird game. We should have scored 10. Iām a huge Smith fan, but that one was a one-off. Iām sure the weather was a bit of the reason. No problem if Iām wrong.

Yes. Pitch looks how I remember it. Perhaps the storm was before kick off
Was pre kick off as was in the Trent Bridge in from about 1pm (guess I was sozzled but pretty sure went in with calm blue skies). Came out at 2.50pm and it was torrential rain walking over the Trent!
Got back on the train and it stopped at Burton after six and some fans got on (canāt remember who they were playing). Turns out their game was delayed by about half an hour due to the weather.

Iāve had a message telling me that A38 north of Burton is currently closed. Iām not sure of cause or how long this might be for but might be relevant if you are travelling up early.
Save travels to the 900+. Superb support, in numbers at least, again. Hope everyone gets behind the team today, they need us more than ever and who knows today could be the turning point.

Few backed us for a result with Gillinghamā¦ Im expecting somthing very similar today. 3-0 Away win with an attempt by players and Sadler to build a relationship with the fans.
First goal will be celebrated with a cupped ear to the supporters,
Second Tommy Knowles will jump in the stand and get a booking with fans saying āāwhy dont you fing do that moreāā
Third from either DJ or Matt who wont celebrate with the supporters but do somthing random that we all talk about all week. End of the game expect the whole playing and coaching staff to approach the away end and clap at us until we leave.
Post match Sadler will say how were trying to build somthing, proof being today. An interview with DD saying the supporters mean everything etc.
1100 fans in the away end but county will say its 400ā¦ Trevor Benjamin as a guest half time speaker for the 50/50 draw.

Good luck to the travelling faithful, as our results now apparently are directly correlated with how much we get behind the team thereās a lot of pressure on you guys today

Sly digs are beneath you, your Majesty
You make good points but why do you care about what other fans think? Your forthright and most of your predictions have come true, you told us soā¦
Why does it bother you that some supporters dont like being told they were wrong and that they still āblindlyā support this āfailed regimeā
We need fans like you, and we need fans like them and somewhere in the middle are the majority.
We are awful, shocking form, manager under pressure, canāt score for toffee, etc etcā¦
So therefore an incomprehensible 1-0 away win.

I live near the A38 and it is definitely closed.
On a more annoying note, Iāve just driven past Danny Johnson going for a jog (by Burton rugby club).
Itās possible that he can run with a dodgy shoulder and not play competitively; however, there looked nothing wrong with him to me.
Not gonna lie: Iām fuming about the way Sadlerās ego canāt accept that DJ is loved by the fans more than himā¦
