WalthamOwl Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 Home to Swansea in December 2009. I had got back from Portugal just hours before after 24 hours of being stuck in an airport because of cancelled flights and trains because of snow in England, some how made it to the game and it was a shocking performance and we lost 2v0. Horrible day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 My Dons away, midweek a few years ago. The only time I’ve ever been colder was the season after at MK Dons away, midweek. All before they filled the top tier in 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiJ Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 Freezing... When I got up to leave at full time i nearly fell down the stairs as my kneecaps were so cold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Southie_Owl Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 It was bitter yesterday, I used to be Steve but after something snapped off in the cold I’m now called Eve. And knowing our club I doubt it will get refunded anytime soon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doubleo Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 I was reminiscing in bed only the other day with the brother-in-law and we could remember going to school in short trousers, having got out of bed when there was ice on the INSIDE of the window frames. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were 3 nil down after about 20 minutes and I said to my (now) wife that we could leave if they scored another. I think it stayed 3 nil. She sat in front of our fire for about 2 hours and was still cold, but then she is a southerner This^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcmigo Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 1 hour ago, Nut said: This one for me. Think we were 4 down at half time. I left when they made it 5. One of the very few games where I've left early. And me insanely cold Paul McLaren red card first half . also recall a brutally cold away game at Bolton when fat sam was their boss: we lost 2 nil and it was horrifically cold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Zarhutt Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 (edited) I felt sorry for the lad who sells the programmes outside the North Stand/Leppings Lane turnstiles. Normally he is in a booth which will protect him from the worst of the weather, but today the booth had gone and he was left with a small table stacked with programmes & no cover. When I asked him where his booth had gone, he said : 'Not allowed - too much snow apparently' Edited November 28, 2021 by Pete Zarhutt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LDV Trophy northern section final, 1-0 down from the 1st leg, 2 - 0 down at Hillsborough after 31 mins, 25/02/2004 just had a look on 11 v 11.

Dooogs Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 Home to Peterborough in Feb 2005 - there were snowflakes blowing under the roof on to the Kop, and I had a trip back to Harrogate (where I was working that week) on a train that only just made it back without breaking down in the snow. I looked like a yeti by the time I got back to the hotel... I don't remember anything except the games (except that we won) apart from the Posh fans assembling a "FRY OUT" board in the first half, which had become "Y FRONT" by the second half... https://www.skysports.com/football/sheffield-wednesday-vs-peterborough-united/teams/58180 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
