Adverse weather discussion at matches thread closed - why?

Oh well - I had a good read of it anyway and reminisce, just a shame I was too late for posting anything on there myself.

 

Like others have mentioned about, mine was Plymouth away in the Championship, November 2005 (match one), which was abandoned at half time when we were 1-0 down - justifiably so too! Best part of it was a Plymouth fan who walked past me coming out the away end with his young son in tow, laughing and saying 'long way home for you - ha ha!' - to which I returned a wry smile as he was oblivious to the fact that I actually lived there too, a mere ten minutes bike ride away from Home Park, although I got drenched cycling home too! :( The rearranged match the following we January lost 1-0 and Levein got his marching orders the next day of course, just a fortnight after we saw off Spurs in FA Cup!

 

 I hope this thread stays open for a while anyway so that others can add their bits - and that 'mods' lightning doesn't strike twice! ;)

Why is that an issue?

Notts County away in the ZDS Cup semi final early 90’s.

 

About 8,000 of us stood in the pissing rain getting absolutely drenched.

 

What a day and evening that was :scarf:

Can remember when we were at Ipswich in blizzard conditions under Sven, were awful and they won 3-0.

After both pre and post-Sven, still can't really believe what happened two years ago with Ranieri.

Ah, the memories. What a night that was!

 

I couldn't have got any wetter if I'd jumped in the Trent!

Maybe should lock all old threads then?

 

I thought it was generally preferred to not start new threads where possible?

can remember standing in a queue at Florist turnstiles for an evening KO  cup match years ago, only to be told it was postponed because of the fog. I still can't work out why, I could see at least 2 people in front of me in the queue neither of which were wearing a floodlight.

Our manager at the time Brian Little decided to stand outside of the dugout for the whole match that day. He said that the weather was that bad and the fans were being rained on, it was only right he joined them. 

 

Horrendous weather, great night.

 

Not so bad but still awful was Portsmouth around 2003. Sitting in an open stand, I remember having to lift the seat up every so often to clear it of water. (Rain, I hasn’t pixxed myself)

It would be interesting to see Mahrez on a pitch like that.
