There might have been a high likelihood of rain but what if the forecast was wrong. Imagine the shit he would have got for calling off a game in case it rained.He apparently said the game could go ahead, subject to no further adverse weather, although he had "concerns" about the pitch. The forecast indicated that that was nigh-on certain to happen. It was obvious even on photos that the pitch wouldn't be able to withstand anything more than light rain. The prudent course would have been to postpone.
