    Wexford's pitch will be fine. Unless you want to warm up on it first

    FAO Derry fans, there was no rain in Bray when I left this morning. A bit of drizzle last night but I'd expect a downpour of Biblical proportions to wreck the pitch by 7.45pm.

    Due to the fact we protect our pitch, it will be perfectly playable. However, the wind and rain down here is likely to affect the football on display.

    Don't forget your torch, reflective jacket and maybe a search and rescue flare 'cos it might get dark early

    Quite a while I'd say, considering the fact that Mick makes them play training matches with their eyes gouged out, on broken glass and hot coals, in their bare feet, with snipers firing automatic weapons at them.

    There's been alot of rain here over last 36 hours or so. If game was on tonight, I'd say it would definitely be off. We'll see what happens...

    That's a slap in the face to the visiting fans who expect the usual free flowing, Ajax style football normally on display in Wexford

    The pitch has been pretty good at draining this year so hopefully with a few dry hours it should be alright.
    Upwards to the vanguard where the pressure is too high.
