Oh yes there is no way the match won't be played - just will be a very wet start to the season and early test for a new pitch. They have done a lot of work on the ground during the summer, excavating the ground to foundation levels.

St Swithin was right!

”15 July is St Swithin's Day. It takes place each year, and according to traditional folklore, whatever the weather is like on St Swithin's Day - whether rain or sunshine - it will continue for the next 40 days and 40 nights”!

It's not so much the pitch it's people getting too and from the ground, I'm sure the powers that be will be thinking about calling it off.

 

[Oooo]

Whitby game off but Boro will be fine I am sure

 

[Oooo]

MFC tweet:

"We've been advised that there is standing water by the underpass at the bottom of Cargo Fleet Road (near Cineworld and McDonalds) We'd recommend using other walking routes to the stadium "

Suns out in Yarm so fingers crossed. Setting off soon. Come on Boro

First day of the season is normally shirt sleeve weather (or I’m I just being nostalgic?)

Just got absolutely soaked walking the dog, so hope it eases if you’re going to the game.

It’s tanking down again

I might have to wear wellies to the match for the first time ever
