Such a disappointment that the game has been called off. We was all looking forward to it. Here’s hoping it goes ahead tomorrow. At least 2nd leg will be at the weekend as opposed to midweek
To be honest postponing a game for rain in May is getting to the relms of where forfiting the match is discussion. The club have got off lightly from EFL.
Forfeit the game because of extreme weather conditions? Do me a favour...
A good PR move by club to get the ref on camera explaining the decision and shame they turned comments off on Twitter (understandable for this) as I would've said - fair enough thanks for explaining and coming on camera.

The ref calls the game off not the club. He will have consulted the league and no doubt both clubs to a degree. And someone upstairs sorts the whether out so some of the ridiculous claims I've read on Twitter from MK Dons fans are quite honestly laughable. It happens deal with it I'm sure many have been inconvenienced myself included. All that seems to be missing is I don't think I've read a statement for the club (BOTH) if fans cant make the re-arranged game here's how to obtain a refund etc.

I don’t think Crawley can claim the rainfall was unpredicted as in this PR piece.
The ref had no choice but Crawley are not off the hook.
It's all sorted, Crawley are not on any 'hook'.
So pipe down sunshine and life goes on.
The PR hook.
I wasted a days travel and came with a lot of goodwill towards your club. You and your club dismiss it and are defensive. Your club have been at the very least negligent by not trying to prepare.
Yes, there is lots of b*llox coming from some Dons fans, but you’re hardly managing this cock-up well are you, or doing the right thing.
I’m very happy to drone on and on…so do keep going.
