UPDATE: Ref insists he had no choice but to postpone Rovers clash
12:43pm Saturday 22nd December 2012 in Sport
By Andy Cryer, Blackburn Rovers reporter
REFEREE Robert Madley insists he had no choice but to postpone Blackburn Rovers' Championship game with Brighton and Hove Albion after torrential rain.
Rain has poured across East Lancashire throughout the night and it has continued this morning leaving officials with no option other than to call the game off with the Ewood Park pitch saturated.
The rain has also wrecked the non-league programme with all of the area's sides left kicking their heels.
"Unfortunately we've had to call the game off today," said Madley.
"I got a phone call on my way over from (football secretary) Ian Silvester saying there could be a potential issue so we've gone out and had a look. The forecast going forward is just rain for the full afternoon. There's standing water on the pitch already and there's really nowhere for it to go.
"The last thing we want to do is to call games off but for the safety of the players it is a decision we have had to make.
"We wanted a game of football, Brighton have come a long way to discover the game is off, but we due have a duty of care to the players, and the fans, in weather like this.
"It is a shame but it is the correct decision."

I find this unbelievable. The North West is full of football clubs. Wigan still on. I don't remember the last time a game was called off due to rain. What's going on down there? Poor Brighton fans. They must be livid.

For those who don't have memories before 1995 Ewood Park is next to a river. Fantastic efforts by groundsmen and pitch builders have meant that for many years the drainage has been better and we have not had a problem. Obviously the huge quantities of rain which have fallen has meant that the water has nowhere to go. It's nothing to do with Shebby, Berg, Venky's, Kean conspiracy theories or anything else, it is the location of the stadium and nature which have caused this.
Unbelievable how much some of these so called fans WANT it to be a conspiracy. Not forgetting that losses are made with wages etc. paid regardless, catering, hospitality and everything involved with the club going belly up for whoever had to make that call.
Safety has to come first, from a Brighton travelling fan perspective its not much comfort obviously, but there's not a lot anyone can do in these circumstances I guess.

It only started raining at 1.30 that day.
And MORONS who are saying Wigan is on don't realise, in their tiny pea like brains, that it can be nice in one place and **** it down only a few miles away.
Christ I've even seen it rain on the other side of my road.

Sudden downpours in other parts of England have cost lives recently so be thankful its only a football match that is affected today in Lancashire. Berg will like the respite I think, its been a long hard week for him - but one which he has come out of looking stronger than before if you listened carefully to what he said. Looks like he is going head to head against Shebby - which is exactly what the majority of fans want. Shebby the biggest destabilizing influence at Ewood Out NOW!
Bit of luck really we will be able to play the game later when we have got our six new January signings bedded in and we are flying on an unbeaten run.

Having a go at everything Rovers seems to be the order of the day.
I'm over in Yorkshire at present and floods in and around my way are abundant.
I live just behind the Riverside and I know first hand what the River Darwen can be like with this weather front.
I feel for the Brighton fans and we extend our football fan sympathy.

Clearly a sign that Kean & the glaswegian gangsters have pulled the plug on todays game. Berg will be fired tommorrow and shebby will become manager. Mrs Desai is set to star in her Bollywood debut and obviously didn't want another loss to take the shine off her performance. I think its ridiculous to think anything else could have possibly occured.

I have it on good authority that the pitch was NOT waterlogged up to 30 minutes ago. At 12.45, the staff and players stuffed tissues down all the toilets, flushed the chain and turned the taps on to deliberately flood the pitch in revenge against Henning Berg not wearing a silly hat at the Christmas party. Shebby the Snake immediately went out with a giant sponge but all to no avail other than confirming the rumour that he is ineeed, the biggest sponger this club has had. Paul Agnew has just released a statement that it's raining but we know better than to trust anything he says. Its a conspiracy!

Once the level of the River Darwen is higher thatn the drains at Ewood, the pitch is obviously in danger of being water-logged.
At least Rovers didn't get beat today, but I fear the result would have been the same... ZERO POINTS!!!

Providing Birmingham do the business against the dingles, although this is disappointing this may be a blessing in disguise because when its re arranged we may actually have a defence and central midfield. If we are below the dingles on Christmas day it will put a real dampened on the big day. For the statistically minded, when was the last Christmas that they were above us in the league on Christmas day??

His football wasn't the best bur he knows how to survive.
The fans protested in the ground instead of supporting the team, making the club more of a laughing stock than it is.
The fans threw a live chicken on the pitch during a televised game, letting the nation witness the circus that our club has become.
The fans have stopped supporting.
Today I believe the gate would have been around the 12000 mark.
I was outside and never knew the game was off until a steward let me know.

n and Wenger hated coming to Ewood and usually went away with their tails between their legs whilst Sam was manager.
It wasn't the fans who got rid of Sam, it was Venkys.

Your back on and thats the main thing!
However, the desperado comments that are on here now we've overtaken you are very amusing. Nothing left to cling on to but the past, and deep down even the most staunch rovers fan must be embarrassed that a bit of rain called your game off! On a serious note as a genuine football fan I hand on heart feel sorry for you lot, it must be a Toss position to be in! But hey ho that's life!
In addition to those mint trophies and accolades you mention maybe we could add "LEAST P1SSED WET THROUGH EMBARRASSING PITCH TO

As for comments about the games at Accrington and Wigan going ahead, perhaps those people need to take a night class in Certificate of Education Geography. There has been torrential rain all over the country but not every town is flooded, has it not occurred to those people that there's a reason for this?
With regards to the comments from the Burnley Rovers fan club, well done, 'Operation Leapfrog' is now complete! It only took more than four months of shocking football on our behalf, an unfulfilled 'promise' of a pasting at your place and a postponed game for you to achieve it, but hey, you did it. I'd dread to think what it'd be like to have your 'Director of Operations' in charge of an Army...

I don't recall any Rovers fans screaming, 'foul play' that day.

I find this unbelievable. The North West is full of football clubs. Wigan still on. I don't remember the last time a game was called off due to rain. What's going on down there? Poor Brighton fans. They must be livid.
As for the dig about Brighton fans going to a 'proper club', our club wanted the game to go ahead, it was the referee who called the game off. I feel for those fans who travelled such a long way, I really do. however, your snide remarks are based on things beyond Blackburn Rovers' control, and therefore unnecessary. Anybody would think that you were the first fans to have travelled such a long way only to have the game called off.

FFS it's pathetic enough Dingles celebrating being in a marginally less sh!te position in the league and having slightly less sh!te weather than us, without dreaming up all the rubbish that's appearing on here.
I assume you all actually live in the UK, so why is the weather a surprise? I guess it must be a slow news day or maybe we all just need to get a life.
Of course the sun had been shining all day in the imaginary fantasy world that is Burnley, so their game would never have been called off; not ever.

To me this is yet another example of the total confusion and turmoil that reigns now at Ewood bad and inept management from top to bottom!.
As for not releasing a statement saying there'd be a pitch inspection, it's a given when there's such bad weather. Anybody with the slightest hint of common sense would've checked the weather forecast and come to that conclusion themselves.

>>>Can anyone confirm or denty this?
Under-soil heating is use to prevent the pitch from freezing in cold weather, not to evaporate water from waterlogged ground.
Wigan's pitch held up nicely yesterday, good for them but Blackpool played on Friday night and their pitch looks to be wrecked.
And lets see if Stanley's pitch is playable when the next cold snap hits, Ewood will be that's for sure, and we will still have some grass to play on.
From past experience I half expected the game to get called off so wasn't all that surprised when it was.
That said Rovers don't come out of this too well, I don't expect many Brighton fans were coming anyway but those who did should be recompensed for travelling expenses and be given free tickets and hospitality for the rearranged match.
The least they should do because they must have known the game was at risk.
But lets not forget one simple fact, it is ALWAYS the referee's decision if the game goes ahead or not.
