Guest prestonj1989 Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 Got back about an hour ago. Got to Peterborough and then just got on my connecting train to Birmingham when I got the message. Ended up getting off in some random place (Stamford) and being stuck there for 2 hours. To make the day better when waiting for return train a bird dropped one on me Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElDiablo Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 To be fair, if it's anything like where I am near Watford, it would be quite difficult to see how they could have got this on. We had shitloads this morning, just not enough time to sort it out properly imo, if it was yesterday then yes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superior Acuña Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 Home from the match. Right pissed off, getting to few away games this season. I didn't even consider it a significant possibility, not much snow any of the way down. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superior Acuña Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 Driving is a relatively dangerous activity, now I'm going to have to do it again thanks to them calling it off for safety 'total rubbish'. I've never found it unsafe getting across a city in the snow, and newcastle fans were already there. Total rubbish. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were half an hour from Birmingham when we heard at 12 o'clock or whatever it was. That's my only gripe with calling it off tbh. Obviously the weather is shite down there and everyone has been expecting it for a few days so it's not a surprise that it's called off. The shitter is the fact they had an inspection at 9.00 this morning, just as wor fans were leaving, and called the game on. To then change their minds totally 3 hours later as the expected snow hit Birmingham leaving wor fans stranded is bang out of order. If the match is off - fine. But at least make the decision early enough to let the travelling fans know before they're too far into their journey. That's the pisser. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Heneage Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 More proof that really the league gives little thought and consideration to it's domestic fans. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
broonalegeordie Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 yep if the match had been called off at 9, we would have been at scotch corner, and could have been back to toon on the bus by 10.... but noooo..... wait til we are in derbyshire. worste thing is, the only snow i actually saw was the frosty covering at durham services!!

Incognito Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 Fucking joke how any game in the top league is called off when the Championship has games going ahead. Not really, match wasn't called off because a Premier League team's pitch was unplayable, but given the deluge of snow that fell in such a short space of time and it being a stadium right in the middle of England's "second city" (with a very popular city centre shopping complex, the weekend before Xmas) - it was called off for safety reasons. Was always going to be called off when the volume of snow was so great this morning. The Chelsea situation is very different and Coventry's stadium is in a shithole and out of town, serviced by major (gritted) roads. Not strictly correct that.
