Titanic99 Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 First of all it was a decision made by both SUFC & Reading FC. Do you agree pre-warning is better than making all those away fans travel the length of the country before calling it off? Secondly, most of those pitches will be clear. It'll be the surrounding areas that have caused the postponements across the country. Sheffield is one of the worst hit areas. Most of the people in my area haven't been able to get there cars from their drives. Public transport has been flaky at best. It would be unfair and selfish of you to deny the stranded fans a home game that can be easily rescheduled, meaning everyone can attend! I'd just like to commend both Sheffield United, Reading, and the dozens of other football clubs who have put the safety of their fans, first! Pre warning could and should have been Friday! I suspect all pitches without undersoil heating will be off Third point emphasises my point, we can't organise the clearing of Roads for Public Transport to get people out and about, yet we think we can organise the logistics involved in a World Cup. There's far more involved in that than there is in clearing the roads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Titanic99 Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 Can you recall not attending the derby at the lane. I recall attending more than one derby at the lane, perhaps a bit more specifics would help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Titanic99 Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 Safe once inside the ground but unsafe outside the ground ....no contradiction there So does he mean it is safe or unsafe to go to the game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If find it a little distasteful that when people are being injured and even killed by the bad weather, you belittle mother nature to make a cheap point.

alex3659 Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 Actually Al i believe it was the DERBY game but DERBY COUNTY.... I was over for my Uncles funeral and went to the Sty for owls vs Blades and if i remember correctly it had rained non stop for days :hihi:, You've got it mate, you can always rely on a Blade. The same happened after that as well when I think it was Barnsley. Not sure ask Titanic he's an owl I think.:hihi:. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whoever made the decisions to: Call it off Announce it just before England were telling the world how passioante we are about football and how we'd organise the best ever World Cup. Can you point out how I'm belittling Mother Nature, if anything I'm belittling our ability to deal with the Snow that has fallen. The Snow by itself will not hurt us, our inability to deal with it can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Titanic99 Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 Because you don't attend derby games at the lane.. No I can recall games but not the date of them, which I would suggest would be the same for 90% of football fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
