Worthing_owl Posted Saturday at 18:23 Posted Saturday at 18:23 I can't remember any. I once went to Gillingham and the game was called off because of fog, A few minutes after arriving in Gillingham, But I can't remember any games I was at being called off. I remember things play in the snow And obviously heavy rain, but they all finished.
areNOTwhatTHEYseem Posted Saturday at 18:25 Posted Saturday at 18:25 There was one we were losing against Wigan where there were waterfalls tipping off the roof. I think Gray was the manager at the time. 9
Popular Post Onge Posted Saturday at 18:26 Popular Post Posted Saturday at 18:26 Home to Coventry, circa 2008. I got the train up from London, game lasted 20 minutes until it was abandoned due to waterlogged pitch, then I got the train home. The massive puddle was the best defender we've ever had - he stopped every Coventry attack, dead. 4 5 1
alanharper Posted Saturday at 18:27 Posted Saturday at 18:27 I've been at the two recent (well, this century!) home abandonments against Wigan and Coventry. Remember a home game against Derby being called off very very close to kick off in the early 80s. 1

onslow Posted Saturday at 18:32 Posted Saturday at 18:32 Boxing Day (or New Years) 1990 v Wolves Proper torrential rain, amazingly not called off 1 3
BIG D Posted Saturday at 18:33 Posted Saturday at 18:33 Walsall away, I’m sure the Franny Lee/Norman Hunter was the same day and we heard it on the radio on the way home. I could be wrong though.
Inspector Lestrade Posted Saturday at 18:36 Posted Saturday at 18:36 All of the abandoned games I've attend the rain played a part 1

We'd been given the chance of cancelling in Pond Street as I remember.
torryowl Posted Saturday at 18:39 Posted Saturday at 18:39 I can recall going to Gillingham and it being called off ,...Blackpool around 2010 and reached Preston before that called off and a game at man city in the 60s being fogged off .Blackburn in 65 being waterlogged when we got there .......home game against man city being called off and being replayed as the infamous game when we lost and got relegated . 1
Harrysgame Posted Saturday at 18:57 Posted Saturday at 18:57 Walsall away around mid 70s, i was about 5 years old. Couldn't understand why footballers couldn't play in the rain.
richowls Posted Saturday at 19:00 Posted Saturday at 19:00 The Coventry game, I spent the rest of the afternoon in the Park Hotel. Got home later than normal, and a lot happier. Top stuff ! 1 1
