Watch: Cardiff fans furious at sprinklers on and ground staff taking the p*ss
Angry Bluebirds' fans complained sprinklers were turned on and that Rotherham groundstaff made little effort to clear surface water after a torrential downpour forced the match to be abandoned.

Compensation and replay.

There’s no precedent for them giving us the result or even playing the last 44 minutes with a 1-0 lead. If anything happens it will be a small fine, but likely a replay and absolutely absolutely nothing else.

I agree but the only hope is that they want to make an example out of them to stop this happening again. I think it would have been abandoned anyway but I don’t think there groundstaff have helped the situation for Rotherham.

It won’t happen because it rained and a game got abandoned, it happens pretty regularly.

Was that the game against Millwall that was abandoned at half time?

It happens quite regularly when its been raining/snowing for hours not after 15 minutes of rain.

No. It’s the English football league and we’re welsh.

There is no scope either the FA or EFL regulations for anything other than a replay from scratch. Even the compensation is clearly defined.
The most that will happen is Rotherham may receive a fine relating to their facilities.
