By the way, I made that word up Mr Jenkins, I am 57, but what difference does age make to the intensity of a hailstorm? In what way am I being melodramatic, which is what I assume you meant? Your remark was crass in the extreme. I have had my face cut by hail when caught in the open, I was about 26 at the time and in my prime and I can assure you it was far from fun. Mr Mitchell perhaps I over do it but footballers have far more potential injuries to worry about than a hail shower. how far do we take it though? Stop playing because puddles have formed and someone might drown. I'm sure the ref had a forecast from UKMO and risk assessed the game beforehand. You see Mr Mitchell we live in a state of fear where everything is an exaggerated danger. Now there is far more serious potential danger of being stabbed walking through places like Lewisham and Peckham at night so maybe the police should bring everyone of the pitch...oops streets. Anyhow if the match had been refereed by Mark Hailsey instead of Mark Clatteredberg then no doubt it would have continued. Always the same crappy and far right-wing agenda driven criticism of the MetO. No-one is convinced by it. I'm sure that if you tripped over a paving stone outside your house and broke your arm, your first call on return from the hospital would be to a personal injury helpline. |
