SnakepitCanary 0 Posted January 9, 2010 I think it''s abit of a naive decision by the Club. If a Norwich or Exeter fan gets seriously hurt falling over or in a car crash, it wouldn''t be worth it. I''m still going to go but it was awful last night. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Canary Man of Kent 0 Posted January 9, 2010 People need to take a bit of responsibility for themselves. If you can''t get to Norwich safely, don''t go, simple as that.The club are obviously confident the areas around the ground will be sufficiently safe.

Was a chap on the radio yesterday that said when he was a child and at school he opened the front door in the morning to go to school and it was 3/4 the way up the door with snow, went to his mum to say he couldn''t go, she got out a broom and cleared some from the top and chucked him out. now we wont go out cos of a bit of snow and ice, crazy!

Howson is now! 0 Posted January 9, 2010 I can''t wait to walk down the hill of death from Queen''s Road to King Street. Couple of beers heads for fun times trying to walk down that hill.

People who will sue at the slightest chance of gaining a couple of quid in this awful compensation age because they can''t be responsible for themselves.I was clearing and gritting the path & steps to an ol'' girls property yesterday only to be told by some tool from the council that I could be prosecuted if somebody hurt themselves on the grit.

lincoln canary (& Golden Coppel) 0 Posted January 9, 2010 I think this is a risky decision by the club! Ultimately i believe lambert has has urged the club to get the game to go ahead for the physcological advantage of potenially being three points clear of charlton. As much as i want us to play in the form we are in i personaly believe the game should not have gone ahead for the safety of fans. I can already see the comments on this board after exeter sneak a win, why was the game allowed to go ahead etc etc............. Lets hope norwich win and every one arrives and returns home safely!

Trent Canary 0 Posted January 9, 2010 Wrap up warm and put on appropriate footwear. And drive sensibly. Simple as that really. The only people who should be of concern is the elderly if they go by themselves, but hopefully they have younger family who can give them a helping hand whilst walking.

Branston Pickle 3,657 Posted January 9, 2010 I agree with most on here - no one is putting a gun to anyone''s head and forcing them to go to the game. I can''t get there today largely due to the weather, but see no reason for a game to be postponed if the vast majority are ok. That''s the way things are sometimes.I do find it quite extraordinary that games seem to be postponed so readily nowadays. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
paul moy 235 Posted January 9, 2010 The main problem will be for Exeter fans driving home after the game as the temperature will drop considerably in the evening. They really are going to have to go carefully and ignore idiots behind them that want them to go faster. I was on a main road yesterday and my car was starting to skid at anything over 20 miles an hour. The guy behind pulled alongside and gave me abuse at a roundabout.

The top part was gritted and clear. But everyone was regretting it by the time we reached that bottom section!
