I think it was abandoned after a lightning bolt struck the stand.

Now i knew he was quick but maybe his eyesight is getting a little dodgy with age.

They forgot to mention the health and safety officers name was Gary Waddock, He was spotted leaving the dugout and shortly afterwards seen walking around with a hi-viz and hard hat on.

Isn't there a rule that after x number of minutes (60-70?) the result stands? Or have I made that up?

There doesn't seem to be a clear rule, but the FL normally only allow results to stand after 90 minutes have been played, so abandoned games are normally replayed. There have been exceptions such as the infamous Battle of Bramall Lane.

I thought there was such a rule.

Were Swindon not accused in the past of switching the floodlights of, citing a technical problem, to ensure they get the points. (may have changed since though)

According to FL rules
Quote
ABANDONED MATCH


An abandoned match is replayed unless the competition rules provide otherwise.

I can remember a farce in the Salisbury league years ago.

My team was gunning for the title and it was getting tight with our rivals with a couple of games to go.

The rival team played in a match where on 86 minutes they were 4-1 down to a mid table team. They then had tow players sent off and then started a big fight (my mate went to watch)...the match was abandoned and the gutless Salisbury league officials made them replay it...the cunts won 4-0 and we lost the title!!

I sent a letter to the League asking if it would be alright to start a fight the following season if we happened to be losing  a game...i didnt get a reply.
