| 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.

It's pretty flat around Bramhall Lane isn't it PT
What I was meaning is that Sheffield is famously built on a number of hills (7 I think). I Saif it was flooded on the way to the motorway but that is uphill away from town in the opposite direction to Bramhall Lane, so not an indication of what the flooding was like there.

Interesting going through your posts, because Wakefield pops up an awful lot. Admit it, it's a love-hate thing. We know you miss The Willows and hate the soulless box you've ended up in, particularly as it's not even in Salford, so you off-load on here. Don't fight it. Embrace it.

I doubt it, surely they won’t want to let fans know with a couple of hours notice. The attendance will be shocking!

Having perhaps had chance to watch the news, do you still consider it to still be a bit of wind?
Perhaps it’s better in these situation to trust those with the full facts available to them
Only a few seasons ago it was ‘just a bit of sleet’, remind us all how that turned out. The British weather is notoriously difficult to predict, something to do with us being an island, don’t know if you knew that.
It’s a game of RL it will happen when it happens, it’s not the Apollo missions.
