It wasn't McCarthy - it was Matbury!!

RL spot on as usual......

Comes to something when we have to celebrate a Abandonment

It wasn't so much celebrating the abandonment - more enjoying the howls of disgust from the home fans - naaaaah!!!!

Seriously, there was no way that the game could ever have gone on. We were far from out of it and they wouldn't have got the goal if the conditions were OK.

Wipe it all off and start all over again.

It does mean of course that we now have two players suspended for the Southampton game - Gudjonsson can not count tonight's match!

 

[bocadillo]

I thought it was Maybury?

You didn't say 'home or away' - I didn't say 'Matbury'

:icon_wink

 

[bocadillo]

will you be taking up the offer of the fox travel boc? if so will they reimburse you for getting to the walkers or is that asking a bit too much :icon_lol:

It'll be cheaper for me to get to Leicester than to Plymouth, so I might make my Fox Travel debut.

Again according to the RL commentary Boc we sounded awful,I do stress according to RL commentators (who seemed to have turned into Micheal Fish and Ian MaCaskill for the evening)

I was at a mid week game against Newcastle in the mid 80's when it started snowing. The thought of going that sort of distance for a game to be abondoned is a nightmare. In my case the snow eased off and we went on to win 4-1 !!!!!

And soon after starting the journey back there wasn't a speck of snow to be seen. IIRC it was at the end of March - snow at the end of March - must have been in the days before global warming!!

And back at work by 8 in the morning. Yeah fantastic.:icon_conf

Work?

What work?

I wouldn't say we were awful. It was simply that the playing conditions that were impossible. They were playing the ball at us and getting us to make mistakes. We tended to try to play too much olé-football and the ball either stopped short or skidded on. I'm sure CL would have explained to them gently that they were not to do so in the 2nd half.

Great clearance off the line by MdV. Several good saves by Rab.

We were still in the game - but it could never have continued.

I might try that..... First Class from Phoenix, limo from Heathrow, etc etc. Do you think they'll go for it? :icon_razz

Of course they will. :icon_roll :icon_lol: :icon_lol:

I just checked the rules - you're out of luck Bbd.

There's only two things that count from an abandoned match - bookings and the starter of the match thread on TalkingBalls.
