Hypothetical - If There Was Rain...
...and the game was still reasonably even, would you prefer to finish it off the next day from that point, or to start it again the next day?

That's a no-brainer.

If it was even, start again.

would start again, otherwise one team is likely to gain a significant advantage due to playing conditions.

If there's one thing I hate it's a game that's abandoned for no reason.

If you've got a reserve day, use it FFS! Don't just play another match!
