Snowflake generation means the game is called off for no reason. Played in a lot worse than this and without the roofs too.

Ever thought that the presence of roofs could be part of the problem, because in high winds they sometimes fly off, or pieces fall off the front?

Would you have been prepared to watch the game on the condition that should you be struck by flying debris of any kind, you will not hold the club personally liable in any way?

The main downside for me is that this was probably the best time to play them. By the time we do play them, Falou will be up to speed and Catalans will have hit their usual mid-season good patch.

United are on a different Sheffield hill though

It's pretty flat around Bramhall Lane isn't it PT

What I was meaning is that Sheffield is famously built on a number of hills (7 I think). I Saif it was flooded on the way to the motorway but that is uphill away from town in the opposite direction to Bramhall Lane, so not an indication of what the flooding was like there.

Interesting going through your posts, because Wakefield pops up an awful lot. Admit it, it's a love-hate thing. We know you miss The Willows and hate the soulless box you've ended up in, particularly as it's not even in Salford, so you off-load on here. Don't fight it. Embrace it.

Still dont think it should be arranged for a monday night mainly for catalans benefit crowd will be lower and clubs food and beer takings would be much lower though hat glove and scarf sales may go up

Has it been rearranged?

I doubt it, surely they won’t want to let fans know with a couple of hours notice. The attendance will be shocking!

Unlikely to be played today. Winds continuing and bringing in snow to the region later tonight

Jesus. We don’t deserve SL if the ground is breaking up with a bit of wind.

Having perhaps had chance to watch the news, do you still consider it to still be a bit of wind?

Perhaps it’s better in these situation to trust those with the full facts available to them

Only a few seasons ago it was ‘just a bit of sleet’, remind us all how that turned out. The British weather is notoriously difficult to predict, something to do with us being an island, don’t know if you knew that.

It’s a game of RL it will happen when it happens, it’s not the Apollo missions.
