Wild weather conditions forecast

[Smkz23]

If the game was postponed when would it be played? Would it take precedence over the Motherwell game for example?

 

[the_baron]

Might be stating the obvious but they pitch must have been be covered today?

Aye, covered in Rain!
HAHAHAHAHHAHAHA

 

[Jan Wyck]

It will make it trickier for the Celtc fans who throw bottles and hit children as they have done at the last two hampden encounters

 

[Forsyth73]

This will probably sound like a stupid question but does undersoil heating mitigate the effects of a waterlogged pitch? If not, then there must be a question mark over the game as the forecast is for relentless torrential rain all night and all day tomorrow

 

[Texas ranger]

just imagine Alfie sliding about in the mud, beaming face doing his wee goal celebration

 

[Henrywatson115]

The weather in and around Glasgow just now and all day has been horrendous.
The game must be in doubt .this is forecast well into tomorrow with 30-40 mph winds

 

[M@x]

Might be stating the obvious but they pitch must have been be covered today?

The pitch doesn't get covered because of rain.

 

[DazRFC94]

Mate text earlier on saying he knows one of the Hampden groundsmen and the guy told him the pitch is badly waterlogged.

 

[Boab4]

Rumours flying about on twitter/group chats that the game is going to be postponed, get that to %^*&.

Love a good group chat rumour.

 

[Neilston Unionist]

The weather is legitimately pretty bad

 

[Fallintrueblue]

Got a message saying pitch inspection at 9. Came on here to see if anyone else has heard this.

 

[M@x]

Monday looks nice, play it then!

 

[top_cat]

45mph winds, loads of rain forecast, up until 4pm.

 

[Art Corvelay]

Yeah, pitch inspection at 9am apparently.

Flooded.

 

[PT98]

Wonder when it would get played if it does get postponed

 

[The Underfaker]

The weather is legitimately pretty bad

It’s grim isn’t it mate.

I’ve checked 3 weather Apps an no let up in the rain at all for the next 24 hours.

 

[Pvt. Hudson]

What a goal that was

 

[Skoosh1872]

I was in the north enclosure that night.
Soaked to the skin, but delirious.
The only things I remember are the red card and goal.
The rest of the game has been erased..

We were in the front row of the south stand. Wettest i’ve Ever been at the football and worth every bloody drop.
Thought we had no chance went Robbo went off so early .
A great, great night.

 

[Brian11Laudrup]

I’m flying into Glasgow in the morning. Weather better behave itself

 

[mustn’t grumble]

A good day to slide hard.

 

[Davieblue1977]

Well be singing in the rain

WATP

 

[Grigo Yossarian]

just imagine Alfie sliding about in the mud, beaming face doing his wee goal celebration

Hope he scores into the Rangers End.

If he slides down that end they bastards will try to kidnap him.

 

[kclarkhall]

Took me weeks to secure a ticket just 24 hours before now I’m worried it won’t even happen!!

 

[M@x]

@rangeral out of interest, any idea when the game would be rearranged for?

 

[thornhill bear]

I feel for the troops that have come from afar for this if the game is called off

 

[Brother Moses]

Yeah, pitch inspection at 9am apparently.

Flooded.

Cmon to f*ck!!

 

[GEODGC]

I'm making this up as I need attention: T in the Park has been cancelled.

 

[Diego Forlan]

I stay across the road and can confirm that it's fucking wild.

 

[ronnieblue]

I've spent all day getting here. Game better be on!!!

 

[Davieblue1977]

Yeah, pitch inspection at 9am apparently.

Flooded.

National stadium flooded surely not

 

[TheEgg]

weve already called our games off tomorrow, but pro pitches should be fine for sure.

(Ive been gambling our games would be off since the rain started as I was on the beers haha)

 

[Brother Moses]

I stay across the road and can confirm that it's fucking wild.

nip over with a ball and check the pitch mate

 

[AbronhillBear]

Surely to christ there is no chance of the game being off.

 

[Neilston Unionist]

Surely to christ there is no chance of the game being off.

It’s been genuinely pishing down, like proper heavy in the Southside area for hours now and it’s meant to keep going all night and all day. Not as heavy though. I’d guess there’s a decent chance.

 

[Diego Forlan]

nip over with a ball and check the pitch mate

Give me 20mins

Got a massive fucking rum to drink.

 

[HenningBerg]

Surely to christ there is no chance of the game being off.

it’s been heavy sprinkles all day and all night and is to continue into tomorrow with high winds also . However I cannot see it being off . I want it Overwith

 

[Michael Mols]

Heard the same. Pitch a mess apparently.

 

[Renfrew@UKGB&NI]

We were in the front row of the south stand. Wettest i’ve Ever been at the football and worth every bloody drop.
Thought we had no chance went Robbo went off so early .
A great, great night.

Bloody long night mind you.

 

[Liviger1984]

Don't tell me i have sharpened my ninja stars to throw at them for nothing. Better be on

 

[BajanBear]

Heaviest rain is between now and 1am. Will rain continuously until tomorrow afternoon but not too heavy. The high winds will help.

If they've got injury worries the game will be off.

 

[jprfc]

Our bus leaves at 8 in the morning

 

[Bluethunder]

Anything like the san marino game,we'll have donald duck on one wing and kent on the other

 

[Clubeuropeloyal]

It’s wild near here but surely to %^*& the shit pit can handle

 

[Sam English]

Just checked The Met Office Forecast And It’s Solid Rain Right Through The Night And Up Until Late Tomorrow Night

Flippers with studs is the footwear of choice for tomorrow then

 

[Henrywatson115]

For the guys travelling. It really is bad in the Glasgow area at present .some of the post joking about it are off mark its howling

 

[StaunchEnclosure]

Sun comes out at 9am so we'll be fine

 

[DerekSSR]

Really bad in southside Glasgow, not looking good.

 

[Sam English]

nip over with a ball and check the pitch mate

And fork the pitch whilst there

 

[Sasa-]

It’s wild near here but surely to %^*& the shit pit can handle

The Scotland v San Marino game would say otherwise. The ball was barely moving on the surface during the second half.

 

[AldoKP]

Can’t get my head around why the pitch doesn’t have covers (lime at Wimbledon used too). Big roll of tarpaulin running at an angle off a elevated roller at one side of the pitch..
