I don't think any match should be called off until the day of the event though Until the day I agree. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Once did a Good Friday a number of years back... KL in the morning, Cancelled, Ippo in the afternoon, heavens opened in the car park, off to Arena for an evening kick off, cancelled, went for Peterborough on the way home, rained off!! I'll never forget that day! Nobody does that these days, even the slightest possibility of a spot of rain they don't turn out!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Before, during or after the event. Three at Kent, plus Eastbourne and Birmingham. It's a theme that we seem to be stuck in at the moment. What happened to summer! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Weather forecasts aren't accurate down South. Heavy thundery showers yesterday apparently, we had nothing but sunshine! lol. I just don't think you can rely on weather forecasts unless lots of them are saying the same thing. But most of the time they don't! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
