Not sure you getting it but the postponement appears to be out of the club's hands more specifically an inspection by the officials this morning!

The only conditions I've seen worse than at 11am this morning when it was postponed with a forecast showing worse was to come was when we played Widnes in March 2018. Sods law the best part of the day was 1500 to 1700, but that's hindsight for you.

| I listened to the Sheffield United game only 25 miles down the road and there was very little reference to the bad weather.

I was in Sheffield up to lunch time.
It absolutely banged it down at 12.00 but seemed to stop pretty quick.
Lots of flooding coming back towards the motorway though.
United are on a different Sheffield hill though.

Nice underlining of the fact someone can't spell.

At 11 this morning, no they weren't. Would you be so confident if your head was on the block?

| The weather in Sheffield had nothing to do with the decision to call off the Wakefield game, the conditions and circumstances in Wakefield did.
Having worked at two clubs over the Pennines I do know there are rules and regulations and the RL are part of the decision making process so not just the Club saying it's too wet today lets give it a miss. Not an easy call to make at that time much is already happening the beef takes a bit of time to roast.

I don't recall saying that the weather in Sheffield had anything to do with the Trinity match being called off.
Merely making a point that the weather was much the same over the majority of the country and a sport that highly depends on the accuracy of the passing of the ball was actually taking part in gale force winds only a short distance away from BV.
I understand exactly why our match was called off and rightfully so ihmo.

The Superleague and all the away teams and supporters don't deserve having your Stadium inflicted on them.

Ever thought that the presence of roofs could be part of the problem, because in high winds they sometimes fly off, or pieces fall off the front?
Would you have been prepared to watch the game on the condition that should you be struck by flying debris of any kind, you will not hold the club personally liable in any way?
The main downside for me is that this was probably the best time to play them. By the time we do play them, Falou will be up to speed and Catalans will have hit their usual mid-season good patch.
