Stockport v Oldham postponed

February 02, 2010

Oldham's away game against Stockport County tonight was postponed due to a waterlogged pitch.

Heavy rain overnight and throughout the day made the Edgeley Park pitch unplayable and the game was called off after a 4.30pm inspection.

The game has been re-scheduled for March 16.

Somewhere down the line someone at F.A. Headquarters should have begun to notice the number of matches being called off at Edgeley Park, due mainly to the fact that it is now a Rugby pitch and no matter what is claimed, you can't play football and rugby on the same surface.

Quite clearly that damage has been done some months back and unless the situation is resolved I can see Stockport being ordered to play their home matches on a neutral ground.

What a shame that this good old club is being run into the ground and Rugby being given top priority throughout....

one more postponement of this match should result in points deductions for the home club.. or a default win for the latics.

surely in the 21st century, a way of fully keeping rain off a pitch must be available...

these postponements, both away and at Boundary Park are wrecking their chances of pulling away from the drop zone.

A Fixture pile-up awaits..
