Ahh come on Berni it's only just about a Gale. High wind at best. The game wouldn't have been best but not really a farce. There have been many a game played in worse.
The safety element obviously concerns the ground fixtures/fittings but if Town needed an excuse to call it off then today would be the best disguise. I feel as other have said, this forecast has been consistently tracked and forecast. Very rare a "Michael Fish" happens these days, so they could've called it off this a.m
If they were being canny they would have just called it off this morning, not an hour ahead, and they wouldn't be training today which is what Wellens said is happening. |

Wellens says lots of things 😉 But also you've got to make it look like you're willing and prepared. Adds to the authenticity of it. |

Let's agree to disagree, I can understand why it was called off late. It shows we are having a good season when the only thing we have to complain about is that the game was called off at 2pm and not 1pm.

The weather will be a leveller in many games today. Fingers crossed that some of our promotion rivals lose some of their advantage over lower placed teams and drop points.

Disgusting decision by the club. Not just because I’ve travelled down from London either. Ours is the only game in the division called off. The weather was worse for the Exeter game.
Have to feel deeply sorry for the Scunny fans. I think the club have dropped a bollock here. Very bad form in my eyes.

Absolutely. I was angling for 12.15pm 😉 Looking forward to the Plym v Crewe match. Only one outcome can be "worse" case. A Crewe win. Even then, it will just make the gap between ourselves and 4th nicer. I still want a draw though  |

Why would scunny and the Ref agree to this supposed “fast one”?

Interesting question. Would they have the option? Unless there is some debris or something in the Arkells which is a danger to life or something? |

Listening to BBC Wilts it was called off by the stadium management team for the fans safety and nothing to do with Wellens |

Could be some interesting and quirky results today due to the conditions. |

Didcot called theirs off an hour before kickoff too. I hear Leigh Bedwell wasn't up for it today. |

They'd have to if it was on safety grounds. They'd take it at face value. I'd guess. |
