Was the game called off a bit too quick?

What’s it like in Cardiff at the moment? Feel like we’ve played in worse before? Maybe a sensible decision though not with the risk

Well watford fans wouldn't be able to get to Wales unless use massive detour as both bridges closed ... City fans won't get to game I couldn't even leave St davids if wanted to same for lots of fans power cuts no trains Rd closed everywhere today.... .. so no not to early! If can call off Merseyside derby yesterday why not city. . :thumbup:

No, right decision.

It's not about what it's like in the stadium but more fans travelling.

Everyone has seen how bad it was this morning and Watford fans would have been on their way in that weather which would have been dangerous.

Also have City fans travelling from all over.


So completely the right decision to call it off.

Monty they say its safety at grounds and not the fans travelling? So OK in London and other areas generally..... I've got one big greenhouse to rebuild another needs several panels one shed had to put half ton balast inside to stop it blowing away may still lose roof of it.....the winds actually got worse as days progressed ... and I can't even get out of St davids both main rds blocked and crazy to try other minor routes to much debris....

Morning monty! It's got quieter and still got the shed.! So yes when put it back in its correct place I shall be strapping it down..... the greenhouse as got a wooden frame inside it just for this reason . . whilst it stayed in situ 2 panels destroyed it can be fixed ... trouble was it was an easterly gale which meant little protection because the 6ft fence around garden at opposite end to house so wind had 80ft of clear space ...sheds ect put next to fences for protection .... garden is 130ft long 80ft wide so can see problem? Anyway sunshine forcast next 4 days sp busy me looks like... hope you survived it all?

Always wanted to know system for towing cars behind thought there was a weight limit so only a very small car like a smart car could be towed? Seems a lot to drive with car as well... :o
