That's why Warmock was fuming. The fact their momentum is ceased for 2 weeks before they play again. The rearranged fixture will most likely be against a fully fit squad which might be flying again. He sensed an easy 3 points and it was taken away from him. Nobody gets an easy three points of Derby - you get an easy one point ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm merely reflecting what was written on the forum by other posters who are in the midlands /north. Fulham = few posters remarking on difficulties Cardiff = a number. Curtains, b4, reveldevil, eweram. ....quite possibly more. I couldn't get out of our estate either. But I do agree that slightly tricky driving conditions near Winchester are not likely to have been a major factor in the postponement consideration. Except in colins fevered imagination.

WestKentRam Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 I used to be involved in organising road running races where police support was necessary. The police made it clear they would never call off the race themselves. The feeling was if they did this then they would be open to criticism/action from disgruntled parties. However if the police were not happy for it to go ahead for whatever reason including poor conditions, they would withdraw support. Therefore the race organiser would have to call the race off, making it 'their' decision. Unless Derbyshire police are saying they turned up on Sunday morning surprised to see the club had unilaterally cancelled the match, I wonder if there is an element of the above in their statement.

SuperDerbySuperRams Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 Am i the only one who is slightly worried here? Club very quiet, WalesOnline has already reported that the SAG head was none the wiser about the situation until after the game was postponed, and the police have said it wasn't their decision? I'm no expert on event organisation, but i really hope nothing negative comes from this... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Police did get involved but they didn't make the decision and it was safety advisor, some areas wasn't in great conditions for anyone to travel so it was the right decision anyway.

May Contain Nuts Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 ...and we had to make a snap decision, holding a meeting based on the information that was available to us at at 7:30am (when it had only stopped snowing about 3 hours earlier) in order to determine whether or not the game was going ahead, a decision which would have been physically impossible to make any earlier and dangerous (not to mention even more wasteful of people's time and money) to hold off making any later.

Hollybush Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 Could the game not have been delayed for an hour so ? fans already on the way would be able to keep up with events on social media and Sky could have still shown it , at a revised kick off time on one of their many sports channels. its not as if it’s uniique for games to be delayed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In all my 40 odd years of watching football I have never heard of a game being postponed because people may have trouble getting home post game. games that have started get called off if the pitch becomes unplayable, not because it might be a bit tricky for fans to get home Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The snow overnight was terrible and I doubt I would have made it to the game. As far as I'm aware Derby called the game off because of safety reasons. Cardiff had no involvement in making that decision. How can they comment on something they have had no involvement in. Ah,I see now, the game was off because we couldn't get the gritters out. Sorry if that one's already been done, but I'm having difficulty making it through all the snow in this thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
