Should Wind Cause More Games To Be Postponed?

[@fman02]

Nothing worse than wind. Once missed a game as I was that windy I thought I might follow through.

08/09 Stoke City would of been loving the wind

[@MostlyLoveOfMusic]

A stand which is able to blow over (temporary or not) is absolutely disgraceful - what if it had happened during a game with fans in the stand?

[@JakePetrolhead]

I think the bigger issue with games being postponed is the fact you're not allowed to postpone them until the day, at least in our league. Not so much an issue as it's regionalised at 8th tier, but certainly some of the distances fans have to travel are long, only for it to be called off. If it's consistently showing the day before that the pitch isn't safe or playable, it should be called off then and there.

[@davedavids57]

It's all about player and fan safety. If it's windy or rainy it's the same for both teams. That's why teams change end at half time. If it's dangerous to travel fair enough, but not if it's only blowing the ball about.

Got to Gloucester last Monday just for it to be called of an hour before kick off. Also thought kiddy was quality against us at our place

Stourport Swifts were badly hit by flooding.

Premier league clubs should support their local clubs. So much money that they could easily help fix these grounds.

[@1dls833]

On the one hand the conditions are the same for both teams and they have to adapt to it. However on the other hand if the wind is so strong then the game becomes a farce,

[@harrybartrum3257]

[@tonbridgeangelsfanog365]

[@craigmcvay1]

YES, wind can interfere with play and things can fly off and kill spectators. one instance Torquay United many years ago a sign flew off the stand lucky no one was killed

[@anthonyperry-dore1137]

As i know some game will go ahead this weekend dont know about NLS or NLN

[@JamieOleszynski]

We lost our little flap to get into our gantry at Chippenham

[@philiproberts1410]

[@mrluke3584]

[@cameronlee5350]

Luke RBLX same should have won with but wind messed everything think, Preston would have won us the game but the wind was a major factor

[@fman02]

Cameron Lee Perhaps you could repeat your comments in English?

[@tonbridgeangelsfanog365]

At Tonbridge Angels

[@alextolfrey9793]

Klopp would agree

[@benholz3438]

Legend says you don’t pin comments

[@GenialHarryGrout]

The wind not only had an effect on football games but it seems it also had an effect on your hair :D, If the wind isn't a danger to the players, officials or spectators then the game should go ahead. The game is played by footballers not snowflakes, although we do seem to be heading more towards snowflakes.
