and if both managers wanted it played

you'd say they thought it was perfectly safe

there isn't a definitive science to postponing football matches

if there was, the managers would not be listened to

lambert had every reason not to want the game to be played and had the perfect excuse

don't blame the ref for all of that

it's just the way it is sometimes

that's football

- which we were told about hours ago (NCFC) - SCC 28, Dec 28, 17:55:48
  - I wouldn't blame the clubs anyway, it's the refs decision (n/m) (NCFC) - wgf500, Dec 28, 17:56:40
    - yes and he consults the managers (NCFC) - SCC 28, Dec 28, 17:58:06
      - Which is wrong, it should be the ref's decision/ the police's if there's safety concerns (n/m) (NCFC) - wgf500, Dec 28, 17:59:36
        
        so the clubs should be ignored? (NCFC) - SCC 28, Dec 28, 18:00:38

        If it's anyone's fault, it's the ref and Walsall's (NCFC) - duke of york, Dec 28, 18:03:27
        
        no one's blaming Walsall (NCFC) - Worzel Scrimmage, Dec 28, 18:02:57
        
        for being influenced by lambert? (NCFC) - SCC 28, Dec 28, 18:03:33
        
        yeah, it's his decision and he's responsable for it (NCFC) - Worzel Scrimmage, Dec 28, 18:06:44

        and if both managers wanted it played (NCFC) - SCC 28, Dec 28, 18:37:05

        have to agree with that (NCFC) - Worzel Scrimmage, Dec 28, 18:07:24
        
        by agreeing with what someone posted earlier (NCFC) - SCC 28, Dec 28, 18:22:04
        
        yes, as you can't seem to understand that the game could and should (NCFC) - Worzel Scrimmage, Dec 28, 18:29:21
        
        it's all very well saying that after they've failed to thaw it (NCFC) - SCC 28, Dec 28, 18:38:19
        
        I'm just going by what Lambert said (NCFC) - duke of york, Dec 28, 18:30:41
        
        yes that's the correct thing for him to say (NCFC) - SCC 28, Dec 28, 18:40:39
        
        agreed, I feel bad for the poor bastards who went (NCFC) - Worzel Scrimmage, Dec 28, 18:34:46

        it wasn't the entire pitch (NCFC) - SCC 28, Dec 28, 18:10:42
        
        See above (NCFC) - duke of york, Dec 28, 18:12:57
        
        and the ref could have been happy to let the game be played (NCFC) - SCC 28, Dec 28, 18:16:29
- "If any of my players get injured I'm holding you personally responsable" - Lambert (n/m) (NCFC) - wgf500, Dec 28, 17:55:36
