Winds are dropping already. By 4.30pm it would have been perfectly playable and we'd have all traveled home safe, sound and happy.

We''ll start getting a few of these a year, especially with climate change but then good luck fitting rearranged games into a packed calendar.

If Millwall and Sheffield can play today at the worst of the conditions there's no excuse for City not playing later when it's settled down.
