Grimsby game Postponed - confirmed

[Emu]

It’s off

Not officially yet it isn't.

So we have a ground that can't stand up to 50mph winds. Poor, to say the least.

Have you tried standing up in 113mph gusts?!

So does it mean that whenever the forecast is for winds over, say, 65mph on game day, games get postponed automatically as there may be damage before or during the game?
Or is it the case that the stadium should be able to handle 65mph winds, and the maintenance and checks have not been done properly?
Either way, questions to be answered.

Why do people use things like this as a stick to beat the club with? I don't understand it.

Is the game on or off?
Need to know before travelling from Torbay.

Also, I've seen no Risk Mitigation for an unmanned Ice Cream Van suffering brake failure outside the Life Centre and then rolling out of Control down the slope towards the Devonport Steps.

Too right questions need answering. We need to hang the blame on someone for exceptional Weather conditions.

Looking for any reason to have a pop.

I've travelled down from London for this one today, I'll be as frustrated as anyone.

But...there's nothing you can do about weather like this.

Welcome to Home Park.

Why does blame culture always have to be used?
Unfortunately these things happen from time to time with adverse weather like this.

What a stupid and ridiculous statement, where’s the cock of the week Janner banner as this post deserves it.

 

[Argyle Nutter]

Game off just received text from club

 

[Army green]

Yeah argyle can’t take the blame for poor weather conditions. Bad weather like this causes damage, unfortunately on this occasion it’s to the stadium. It is what it is I’m afraid.

Game is OFF

 

[Guiri Green]

I genuinely can't remember the last time the Weather cancelled a game. I was there when one was abandoned, it must be bad there for that to happen.

It's safety issues, the wind damaged the roof in the night.
