It just said inspection to be carried out by a “senior referee”…which implies it’s not the match referee doing it.(who is from Oxfordshire area but is fourth official at reading today).they did bring something in about inspections.that they seem to be moving back to the local refs rather than demanding it be the match official…although agreed this pitch situation is not immediate weather related or a fluctuating one..

Re Coventry City v #rufc tomorrow ...
A referee who checked pitch at Coventry Building Society Stadium yesterday declared it unsafe.
Grounds staff working on it before official inspection at 6pm tonight.
Coventry City as angry as everyone else - they don't own the stadium.
What a mess! It can only get worse for Coventry and visiting teams as the season progresses.
Tick tock tick tock
Game is off
Could’ve done this yesterday the ****ers
