We were told that if you set off you wouldn't get a refund. Some of the lads on the coach decided to make a beeline for the train and tried there luck there. We turned back at Ripley just after 11am Arrived back at Sheffield just before 16.45pm.That's how bad the conditions were that day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I remember it well. We didn't get as far as that. Me and a mate walked into town from Stannington only to find out our coach wasn't turning up. We were gutted it was the only game I missed that season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The only way is S6 3,169 Posted February 25, 2018 Don't believe the hype. It might not turn up. If it does, it won't settle. If any does, it'll be gone by Wednesday tea time. Paranoia since Fish had wind trouble in 1987. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
