West Ham (h) pre-match thread

[BlueDan91]

Just going to Ikea in Ashton before getting the tram to the game. Motorways are mental in this. Car being blown all over the place. Visibility seriously impaired. I was sceptical that the game would be called off, but now I'm not so sure. Would be madness for it to go ahead. Stranger decisions have been made though.

I live in Audenshaw 4 miles from the Holy Grail....and it's got a lot worse now..

I’n in Romiley, Stockport and it’s pretty bad. Extremely windy and leathering it down.

My main concern is the big trees across the road flattening my car, if one goes over.

 

[blue b4 the moon]

Worst it's been in Oldham now.

Don't fancy it but will be going if it's on.

 

[manimanc]

It's going to be cracking the flags come 4 o'clock .

 

[kippaxchris]

If its on I'll be going but I doubt it will be. Match against Sunderland a few years ago was called off under similar circumstances.

 

[BlueAnorak]

Peak wind is at 3pm. Just when locals are going to the game. it declines from that point.

It’s dreadful here it’s suddenly got worse in the past few minutes the wind and rain smashing the glass we are not going to the game even if it’s on, mr KB is sensible about the weather theses day’s so the tv it is.

All but one of the Women's Super League matches have now been postponed.

I was going to that game by train. The overhead gantries came down north of Wolverhampton at 4:30pm. I came home. It took 4 hours to get home from Wolverhampton station. (Should be 35 mins)

No spare dates for a rearranged game unless they let us play on European weeks when we're not playing.

Think you have the time for the peak wind incorrect.

Is there an inspection at 11 ISH or is it just speculation....no doubt sky NB we I'll put money and viewing figures before human life

 

[RegMuffin]

Really disappointed with our club today.

F**k all on the website or twitter about decisions or inspections. Poor West Ham fans treated like sh*t, taking 5 hour trains.

This game won't happen and the forecast has not shifted since Thursday.

 

[Gray]

It's just changed to 1pm.

Yes they are never absolutely certain but looks like between noon and 1pm it will be at its worst.

 

[Vienna_70]

Mrs Vienna has just said that a message on Twitter says it has been called off!

 

[RegMuffin]

Officially postponed. Game off.

Good decision, but disgusting it took them till 1115.
