Yeah there's temporary lights up now on the Calder Road, down to one lane just outside the prison. Heard there's more further along towards Gorgie but not sure, anyone driving in should give themselves an extra half hour I'd say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tell her to can it, get her nails done (nothing too fancy mind, doing the washing will wreck them anyway) and get yourself to the game. This approach worked fine with my 3 ex wifes.

jock _turd Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 I think people are missing the real point here... it is not about 22 people playing a game of football... it is about 15K plus people travelling to and from this game in safety! If safety is an issue, an it definitely is, the game should be postponed end of. Of course we know that won't happen but god forbid someone driving along the road and being hit by a falling tree or someone being hit by debris falling from a roof due to the high winds or maybe a train hitting a fallen tree in a rail track. These are reason to postpone a football match not whether the over paid twats on the field can play in the conditions . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is always a risk on a daily basis. That is true but anybody should recognise that it is foolish to deliberately put yourself in harms way for no good reason. For example, different situation but, if the ground was covered but the weather forecast was for high winds and snow making travelling conditions dangerous it would be foolish not to postpone the game... even though the conditions at the ground would be perfectly playable. The point is was making, trying to, was that the safety of the public traveling to and from the game is what should be the arbiter of whether the game goes ahead or not... not whether the players could cope with the weather conditions.

You could make a case for it sure but it would have to be followed in all aspects of life including work and it wont happen. Individuals should make their own decisions on travel. I just think the modern phenomenon of naming "storms" , when in reality its a bit of wind and rain, leads to an overreaction in many quarters. There is a daily risk for everybody and we should make our own decisions. My decision is to go to the game and take a very small risk because I love watching my team. If I'm dealt a bad hand then that's life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
