Thought Coyle was **** today and Jacob awesome , Pandur rushing out to catch crosses was risky too .
I didn't object to anyone discussing it. I was adding my thoughts to the discussion by saying I don't really give a toss about it being called off. Currently im struggling to get angry or annoyed about a groundsman that can't do his job. That's all I was saying.
If other people want to be angry I've no issue with that.
And no MOTM thread... Shocking!
At least they didn't run out of pudding and custard. Plenty of positives.
Why doesn't undersoil heating extend to these very small fringes and technical areas? Does the same thing happen at other new stadiums?
Why didn’t they put tarps over the technical area and touchline before they turned the sprinklers on? Surely the staff know the artificial turf on the outside of the pitch is prone to icing over when wet and doesn’t have underground heating.
It seems like an avoidable situation due to incompetence more than anything else.

Hull City's Sky Bet Championship match against Watford was postponed due to player safety concerns.
While the pitch was playable and had been passed by the referee, areas immediately surrounding the playing surface were deemed unsafe and the decision to postpone the game was agreed by all parties.
Despite the continued efforts of the operations and grounds teams to clear the affected areas, conditions failed to improve, and with temperatures continuing to fall, player safety could not be guaranteed.
We fully understand the frustration of supporters regarding the timing of the decision. Every effort was made to fulfil the fixture, and we sincerely apologise for the inconvenience and disappointment caused.
A new date will be announced in due course and match tickets will remain valid for the rearranged fixture.
Further communication will follow to match ticket holders and hospitality guests.

This is true. Saw a bloke with his son. Looked like he'd just paid for 2 x chicken and chips and a couple of hot drinks and was heading for his seat!
Do they fully know what happened at Withernsea ?
Some reports say the girl was swept away by a large wave and others went to help .
I didn't realise the waves where that big as it seemed not that windy .
Sounds like she was filming the rough sea from the steps and a massive wave came from nowhere. She couldn't grab the life ring and then a 67 brave local mam and her mum both went in to get her and both died too.
An update...
Man who died after Withernsea sea rescue named
Mark Ratcliffe's family say he was "so cruelly taken trying to save others".

I'll never forget an incident that unfolded in front of my wife and I in Blackpool in the early 80's when a dog went into the rough waters.Owner jumped in after it,police followed and from memory 3 police died...
It's the type of thing you warn your kids against at a very young age...As in,stay the **** away from rough seas!!!
There was me thinking HCC's health and safety department would be the only barrier to a game of football breaking out this afternoon. Step forward the Football League and their panickity officials
Snowy Swindon away in about 2005......About 200 City fans were seated, in the stand under the protection of the roof. One lad, on one of the two TT coaches, can't recall his name, refused to pay the extra so ended up sitting on his jack jones in the open end section with a blizzard blowing into his boat for the vast majority of the game....Hardest bastard thing I've ever seen.

That'll be the day plod stood outside of their social club watching for City fans coming out of their social club, then refusing them entry to the ground claiming the City fans were intoxicated, policing at its finest, ****s.
