Wullie Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 See Boro are at home tomorrow, surprised they haven't already called it off back last week, the fucking cheating bastards. NEVER forget. Never! I'm still fuming, what, seven years later? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 People say this every time it snows. You'd think it was some kind of unprecedented event in the UK. Just seen the weather forecast on BBC fir this weekend. Heavy snow across Newcastle throughout tonight. With an early kick off very hard to see the match being on. Prophet of Doom, pray could you tell me the last time a match, to be played in the middle of the day (12-4pm KO) was called off? That's maybe because we're speaking from experience. Last season we had almost all games postponed one weekend. See http://www.premierleague.com/page/Headlines/0,,12306~1927520,00.html. *cough*Bullshit*cough* there's no Newcastle home fixture there, stop being such a girl.

You asked for a match, if you meant a newcastle match then be more specific. Why do you think we would be more able to cope with the snow than the rest of the premier league? And I'm not bothered by the snow, just don't trust the council/health and safety twats to let us play. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sorry, I'm speaking in the Newcastle math thread about the likelihood of a Newcastle game being called off, I should have specified that I was discussing Newcastle home games. Sorry. More importantly, the fact that the game is on SKY only increases the chances of it going ahead - JonnyHall is spot on. Council and club will be up at 7am clearing paths and roads, only a freak blizzard at 12pm would put the game seriously at risk. People have mentioned the Charlton game being called off at the last minute, pitch was playable but the freezing weather at night was posing the H&S risk around SJP. It's to our advantage that the game is KO 1.30pm. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But whatever, I agree we must be doing all we can to get it on, bribe as many council officials as we can to get all their men around SJP! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's to our advantage that the game is KO 1.30pm. Wasn't the Charlton game called off because there was ahuge snowfall at around 6pm and the gritters couldn't get out to clear the roads as they were already jammed? It was then thought that the roads would be death machines by 10pm? I can't see why the game would be called off at 1:30, the roads will be clear first thing and pavements from the station gritted to stp people not shopping in town this close to Christmas. add in the Sky influence and it would take an apocolypic fall of snow to get it called off. Just hope we get an orange ball Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

madras Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 i believe the game will go ahead if the club want it to and i think they will as it gets bartons last suspended game out the way before west brom and also a chance to play chelsea at possibly the lowest they'll be this season.

Just hope we get an orange ball Orange/Yellow ball is mandatory after the clock change to GMT IIRC. Also, we played Southampton on Sky in about 99/00 that was called off because of snow. Think we drew 1-1 in the rearranged game with Kevin Gallagher scoring a nice lob for us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
