    ...the scale

    I wonder what would happen if one of the championship games was called off due to waterlogged pitch on Saturday. If one match is cancelled would all matches be cancelled due to fair play.

    Maybe they have to go ahead and we play in a bog.

    I dont think it will happen, but just my thought for the day. (hopeless I know).

    See you all on Saturday. COYR

    Good question actually, I do wonder what would happen if one match was called off. I imagine the ground staff would all be given a slap for being useless berks but I guess we won't ever know (until it happens)

    The thought had crossed my mind actually and its not totally crazy given the amount of rain that is yet to fall.

    Another question I have (and I know we have had a thread on this but I can't find the answer to this) is what would have happened if Saints and WH had everything even (i.e. if we had had two draws for example)?

    really interesting question,

    if one game had to be called off, say late batch of snow or waterlogged pitch would all matches be suspended?

    There must be an answer to this as well, a contingency plan if the situation ever did arise

    It's akward isn't it. The relegation issues are decided so theres nothing to worry about regarding those fixtures but with the magnitude of our math, west ham, cardiff and boro you'd have to think there's a plan. I'd imagine get on with it as long as the called off game isn't one of the four teams above.

    Tbh, as soon as I saw the headline, I knew it was a dodge. Too many of these have appeared in quick succession. I think we're all getting a little immunised to them.

    Bring the real thing on.

    Unfortunately it then goes onto "Amount of long balls aimlessly into the opponents half" - playoffs here we come! <ok>

    On a more serious note it goes to a special playoff at a neutral ground.
