As Easterly as it gets! Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 17 hours ago, Balmoor Boy said: I think the SFA should be instructing their referees all over Scotland to have a long think about overhead conditions before starting games tomorrow. It is blowing a gale just now and more of the same is forecast for this time tomorrow - surely common sense must prevail as it is no fun for players or spectators watching a team failing to get out of their own half or goal kicks being blown over the goalkeepers head. That requires the powers in Scottish football to use common sense. Not something they display often. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
++Ammo - Airdrie++ Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 Forfar at 18/5 the day???? What am I missing? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peternapper Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 Have said all season I would not back us in any game as we never know what team is going to turn up, If the wind really blows will be a complete lottery. Certainly 18/5 looks good value for Forfar. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loon74 Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 It was the ginger boys mate that was more of a problem at our last visit, standing right in front of us being a knob for no reason. I was warned that any complaint would fall on deaf ears but was disappointed after contacting the safety officer & chairman at Forfar and getting replies saying it would be looked into that as forecast by Forfar supporters it died a death without being resolved.As with all other complaints 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bridie Vision Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 One change for Forfar. BJ Coll in for Baino. Not sure about the 18/5 but do hope the Loons get 3 points, but our record's not great at Balmoor. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blootoon87 Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 Joke of a decision. It's bad but I've seen a lot worse. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaggy Snake Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 Abandoned due to high winds which seems odd having played more than half an hour. Peterhead Twitter describing it as a bizarre decision. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoonsYouthTeam Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 Passive Aggressive from the Club here I love that the first guy commenting calls them out on it after they'd just said the wind was causing havoc.Tuesday night does not appeal 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toon 68 Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 It’s peterhead , it’s always windy ! If he (the ref) knew it was getting worse, then why start ? Thought we weathered the storm well, and was looking forward to some shooting practice in the second half .. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tuesday night does not appeal The wind can cause havoc in terms of trying to play football/making long passes accurate without being dangerous in any way. ETA: obviously not being there I'm just talking in theory. Edited February 8, 2020 by Jaggy Snake 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
As Easterly as it gets! Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 Absolute shite. Theres been games played in windier conditions this season. It was no worse 35 minutes in than it was at the start. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iamnotgarybollan Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 So glad it was called off as my safety was in danger with it being windy 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fafc1885 Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 Fleming seemed to be the only person complaining about the weather to the ref, yet there looks like he had made no attempt to dig a hole to keep the ball on the spot, the spot was immaculate when we walked past after it was called off. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
