I'm going to say that the game will likely be called off!

This morning's rain caused this postponement, not the river. That's well below the level that caused the Chorley postponement, when it was at 1.06m.

I don't think this can be pinned on the EA and the flood wall but the 10-12mm of rain that fell in six hours this morning.
