Mr Banos Posted January 29, 2013 Report Share Posted January 29, 2013 With weather warnings in place, I hope we have more than 2 blotters working today on the pitch. Chance of a second cancellation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkeh Posted January 29, 2013 Report Share Posted January 29, 2013 With weather warnings in place, I hope we have more than 2 blotters working today on the pitch. Chance of a second cancellation? depends on the amount thats due to fall, its not often we get a game called off due to a waterlogged pitch, that boxing day one if they would of listened to our ground staff and delayed kick-off til 4 it may of gone ahead, but if there is a massive deluge then now amount of blotters on earth will get the game to go ahead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keepers Ball Posted January 29, 2013 Report Share Posted January 29, 2013 Just sodding typical. I took my Missus to a game in 2001 and she hasn't been since. She finally agreed for the Watford game only to be called off due to crap weather... ...and what's it doing now ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red-Robbo Posted January 29, 2013 Report Share Posted January 29, 2013 A guy sitting next to me at the cancelled game had driven down from Norwich to be there. Four hours in the pissing rain. He looked like his soul had imploded when the officials came out that second time and could be seen shaking their heads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd have to be made of stone not to laugh at that I think there's some confusion here. When the Met Office forecasts heavy rain, it doesn't mean the monsoon that hit Bristol on Boxing Day. People I know who've been in India say that "monsoon" was no exaggeration; if anything, an understatement. I would say there's a 99% chance of the game being on. Wish we had the same chance of winning... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
