Can only see it getting called off on Health and Safety grounds, as said above.

Don't recall a game ever getting called off because the wind would have made it a drab affair.  Only tends to be if it's unsafe and/or the surface won't let the ball roll naturally.

Quoted from Les Brechin


That actually led to a goal I think. It was the game in the JPT Trophy (or whatever it was called at the time), they were the holders and filled the away end and part of The Main Stand and had more fans there that night than us. Their keeper took the goal kick and the wind sent it spiralling back towards him. A Donny defender tried to head it back to him but just succeeded in heading it over him and into the net.


Yep remember it clearly. One of those weird goals that happens and you just shrug your shoulders as strangely, everyone saw it coming. That and poutons half-way line own goal are the weirdest goals I've seen at BP..

Highly unlikely the game will be anywhere near being called off as there is only a yellow warning issued for NE Lincs. The areas that have amber or red warnings issued are further north so there should be no issues apart from gusts at times.

It's looking grim in Grimsby tomorrow. Not only Northerly winds gusting 50 mph plus, but heavy rain forecast all day up to kick off & during the game.
If the game goes on chaps - heavy weather gear methinks will be the rig of the day.
Fingers crossed.

Sustained winds of 35mph, gusts 55 mph from the north. Not going to be pleasant in the Upper!

These sell out games must be great for him.

A Walsall home game many years ago was spoilt by high winds.  The team playing with the wind in the second half came back from 2-0 down to 2-2.   Cannot remember which team was which though.

I advise all Boreham Wood fans not to travel up north to Cleethorpes on Saturday as the weather will be atrocious, strong winds, freezing temperatures and heavy sleet showers  Grimsby fans are reminded that they will need their big coat.
