I watched it last night….unbelievable . Crooksy done wellSurprised that wasn’t called off? Can’t imagine a game going ahead like that here.
I've got vague recollections of watching footy with snow on the pitch but the penalty boxes having been cleared before the game. Guess we're spoiled with under soil heating now....Surprised that wasn’t called off? Can’t imagine a game going ahead like that here.
Circa 2011 in December snowed so bad that Marvin emnes run the ball out of play down the by line as the line has disappeared in the snow coming down. Must have been a 4 figure crowd that dayI've got vague recollections of watching footy with snow on the pitch but the penalty boxes having been cleared before the game.

Boro v Man CityI remember a game in the late 80s early 90s at Ayersome where we were chanting to the south stand for an update because the fog came in so thick we couldn’t see what was happening at the other end…
At least that’s what my memory tells me but it could be a romanticised version of a foggy game
Great read, that. Cheers.Pitches were often dodgy until fairly recently. Man Utd relaid Old Trafford 18 times between 93-03! Good article from the Athletic on why top pitches are fine now
