Worst conditions a match has continued in

[Rattus Norvegicus]

I remember a game at Hartlepool (Newman as manager?) where the weather was very poor - so much so that the team let in 5 goals before managing to get warmed up and score a consolation goal at the end.

Not perhaps the worst weather for a game but a pretty nasty combination of poor weather and poor team performance. :'(

Was that one Barrington Belgrave chested in our consolation?

The performance was grimmer than the conditions.

This game was brilliant in the snow, could barely see a thing at one point.

I'll always remember Shrewsbury being absolutely fine with the ball until we scored, at which point they began protesting to the referee that it wasn't fair as he was also wearing yellow and they were getting confused! Apparently none of them were able to tell the difference between a bright yellow leather ball and a fully grown man in a yellow t-shirt! :hilarious:

Good old Bedsente. Shame it didn't work out for him, but was still nice of George Weah to recommend him to us.

Shrewsbury in the snow at home, I was stewarding sitting in front of the East Stand and couldn't see the otehr side of the pitch at times.

Was there that night ( couldn't find an orange ball?) but to Shrewsburys credit agreed to play on
Real white out too!!

For me, it has to be the 4th round tie against Manchester City in 1956.

The waterlogged pitch was treated with tons of cockleshells from Leigh Old Town. I was wearing a blue & white scarf, huge matching rosette and hand-painted rattle! To my utter dismay Southend played in yellow and black, because there was a colour clash. Although we lost 1-0 due to Trautmann's heroics in goal, our brave efforts earned us the title of "cockleshell" heroes.

Watford home 1992. It was so foggy. I was in the west stand but you couldn't see the goal at the south bank.we were ripped apart by Watford but somehow won 1-0 thanks to Keith Dublin. He wasn't playing for us then but he gave away a pointless corner the headed on the corner for I think Angell to score.
We somehow held on for a 1-0 win. We all kept looking at the ref waiting for him to abandon the game.

Yes....that match gets my vote too. It was the final good result of that season as just after that things fell apart as news of dave webbs contractual disagreement became public know knowledge.
