A very good 2015 chateauneuf du pape we bought from the estate we visited last summer.... and a medal winning Bordeaux bought from a merchant in blois last spring. No rugby.... my attentions are transferred to one of my other passions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently still money left in the budget to bring in more players come the play offs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Squidward Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 10° plus. Breezy at worst. Bright and dry. Worst of the predicted 'storm' passed. Just come in from 40 mile drive around York area. All roads passable. One fallen branch at a roadside and some big puddles only. Nanny state? Can't help but think we really didn't want a match at 6 15 streamed live impacting on the attendance and wouldn't have strongly resisted a proposed cancellation.

Robin Evans Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 I must admit.... at noon i wasn't sorry the game had been pulled. There's all sorts of mayhem in the don and dearne valleys. But now.... its lovely out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they didn’t want the pitch completely ruining impacting on further home fixtures . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Phantom Horseman Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 There was standing water on the pitch at midday and there are more heavy showers forecast over the next few hours. We had posts in this thread asking for an early decision. One of those damned if you do, damned if you dont situations I'd say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But with still almost 3 hrs to kick off in good drying conditions with a forecast of less than 50% light rain if any im a bit surprised. I haven't seen the pitch but the official reason given is that of safety of the supporters. Guess I'm a bit grumpy at having planned my day around the game it's been called off.

Maureen T-k Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 The pitch was like a swimming pool and there’s still more showers to come, so whether the sun is shining or not now it doesn’t make any difference. Im Fev and im proud Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With it being the safety of supporters as the reason though I just think some wind and rain isn't reasonably likely to be harmful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mild and sunny when I went out but reading the other reports sounds like a sound decision. With regard to Chisholm I think they will put a match in on a Friday night say before the cup tie so his suspension isn't extended to a fourth listed match.
