Zanetti Posted October 7, 2023 Share Posted October 7, 2023 17 minutes ago, Dunning1874 said: Probably not as heavy in Glasgow, but Greenock's had hours of the kind of rain that only took 20 minutes to flood the Hampden pitch for hours for the Georgia game. The rain here isn't as heavy as it was the night of that Scotland game, but it's been on for a lot longer. Worth noting that it's a new pitch now though, which might make a difference. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spider Rico Posted October 7, 2023 Share Posted October 7, 2023 Mount Florida roads busy as part of Aikenhead Road is flooded, worth noting for anyone making their way here if the game somehow is on 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bring Your Own Socks Posted October 7, 2023 Share Posted October 7, 2023 (edited) 21 minutes ago, Dunning1874 said: That's the trains off entirely now and main roads have already been flooded for hours, so even in the extremely unlikely event the pitch is playable no one is getting there. When you say no-one, maybe no-one outwith 5 miles…roads look bad in all directions. If not flooding, accidents. https://www.traffic.gov.scot/traffic-information/incidents Edited October 7, 2023 by Bring Your Own Socks 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spider Rico Posted October 7, 2023 Share Posted October 7, 2023 QP saying game on as it stands with no current concerns about the pitch Does the Morton team bus leave from Cappielow for games in Glasgow? That bit gets flooded fairly regularly doesn’t it? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the night of the said Scotland game it only had some puddles. So I fear rain is currently impacting more today than that night and it's going to continue. So this pitch upgrade must be something special if coping. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skeletar Spider Posted October 7, 2023 Share Posted October 7, 2023 If opposition fans aren't able to travel then the game shouldn't go ahead. These are fairly exceptional levels of rain, just get it postponed and play it midweek. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EaglesandSpiders Posted October 7, 2023 Share Posted October 7, 2023 Everyone's talking about how Morton fans can't travel out of Greenock/Inverclyde. What about the Morton team bus? Can they travel or are they already in Glasgow? I mean, as disgraceful as it is, the match can go ahead without the travelling fans but not without the travelling team 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

an86 Posted October 7, 2023 Share Posted October 7, 2023 (edited) On the one hand it obviously shouldn’t go ahead, on the other there’s something grimly intriguing about the prospect of two honking mobs fighting it out in slapstick conditions.

williebraveheart Posted October 7, 2023 Share Posted October 7, 2023 (edited) No way this game should go ahead. Safety of fans is obviously not important to SPFL/SFA. Health and safety of players not considered either. Edited October 7, 2023 by williebraveheart 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reason your back garden is under so much “water” is down to the number of Paisley Buddies pissing themselves laughing at Mortens start to the season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The streets of Paisley reeking of piss checks out I suppose. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
