West Ham match postponed - confirmed

[George Hannah]

We weren’t really here today

There were nearly a few, got a call from a mate in Hampshire just now, turned round at Watford Gap but still a 360 mile wasted journey.

times change I suppose

Great pic. Was that Cowards Corner/Gene Kelly or Platt Lane end?

What game was it and what relevance does it have on today’s game ?

Christmas day game in the 50s demonstrating a rather different approach to tackling adverse weather conditions.

The weather didn't stop the Sheffield game, not quite a capacity crowd but close. Calling ours off was ridiculous in the light of the Met Office predictions, especially so given the radar forecast at 11.00am showing improving conditions.

None, today's was about severe gales not frost, only idiots (or WUM's) could post a picture like that as even slightly relevant.

"Where there is error, may we bring truth....." It is indeed a tedious endeavour but unless you take the trouble to correct people's mistakes they never learn ;)
