Tiberius Stinkfinger Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 Flying up later today and not going home till Sunday so a cancellation will mean more time spent in a warm boozer, kinda hope its postponed tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davieholt Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 bunch of ******* in our support honestly. FFS a wee bit o wind and rain, can happen in Summer too. obviously the lot of you were behind your keyboards last week and not at Motherwell, where for a neutral it would be quite an entertaining game, man up ffs, WTF are you on about? I'm not talking about the supporters. We can dress for the weather. I'm talking about the game which could turn into a complete farce. I'm not a neutral and a perfectly winnable game at Motherwell was ruined because we couldn't play our normal game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hmfc_liam06 Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 I've long advocated games being called off when wind affects what's going on on the park. It reduces the game to farcical levels. Like golf, when the ball blows about on the green it gets called off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamboHeriot Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 There will also be concern regarding the state of the roads at the weekend. The road down from Inverness is a tricky one at the best of times.High winds and possible flooding will make their journey a nightmare. Plus the fact that the Forth Road Bridge is closed for the next 24 hours and maybe even longer. All things considered an early decision will have to be made. My guess is the game will be called off tomorrow. Never going to happen. Even during the winter of 2010 our game against Aberdeen went ahead.

Sam Nicholson missed a sitter in the final few minutes, Juanma scored as Juanma a goal as you're likely to see. Not able to play our normal game At times we tore them apart.

DG_HMFC Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 Wind is the worst weather for football. Good thing about Tynecastle is that it's pretty well sheltered. My concern is with the fans that have to do a bit of travelling . Up to 50mph gusts can be pretty severe. Be safe fellow supporters.

Snedds76 Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 Kincardine bridge will be shut from this evening if the winds forecasted happen so game will be off as there will be no team to play against unless they get the train or swim over!

Lord Beni of Gorgie Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 Since when has our newly laid pitch with excellent drainage suddenly become an amateur pitch? The stands ensure wind is not such a factor. I don't think there will be too much concern. 25mph winds are not anything to fuss about either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daveandal Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 I would be very surprised if the game was off due to weather.....the bridge is another matter. However if the game is called off due to that then our games away to Aberdeen and STJ as well as our home match with Dundee Utd would be called off as well. I really can't see our only game from now till Jan being against Celtic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gorgie_Rules Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 I will be amazed if the game gets called off, what a bunch of panic merchants It's not macho to claim that a bit wind and rain is a piss poor excuse for calling a game off.
