'Do your bit for climate change this holiday period by restricting your intake at festive mealtimes to four Brussels sprouts or less.' @3WhitehallPlace I see you hit with 'waffling' as setting out your stall so to speak. So with that in mind I say simply this: Just delaying the game for the duration of the two minute high intensity hail shower as that what it was; the game was delayed for far longer due to the official stop and start process' If you have ever been to a big premiership game you would know everyone wants to get on the road ASAP as many have to work the next day and getting out of grounds is a nightmare. Referee Clatteredicebergen by the time he stopped the game shower had already abated and the worst was over but he then had to pull everyone of because it was raining and windy. I believe the whole process delayed the game by ten minutes for something that had already peaked when the ref stopped it. |
