Following pitch inspection

Shame. Have to hope Stamford is on. But good luck this season to get to January 31 before first game called off.

anybody know what has happened to Kiddies pitch? Can't ever remember a game off before this year, ....but today is the fourth this winter

I wonder if it is down to the fact that Kiddy were supposed to have pre-season financial troubles? It's not beyond the bounds of possibility that they took short cuts on their pitch work compared to usual.

Perhaps kiddy got their topsoil from a building site?

A bit unfair that Raiden.
On the occasions that I've been there in the past, their playing surface has always looked to be very good. Also, as OG pointed out, even in a fairly dry and mild winter, they have had a number of postponements, so it looks like something changed with the pitch preparation of this season.
