I am a Pirates season ticket holder and looking at the weather outside I don't think I'll bother, The club have already said the Newlyn covered end will be closed because of the row of trees behind. I know there are financial considerations but if it were my decision I would postpone the game.

Trains being cancelled all over the place. Safety has to be the number 1 priority

Me too, Capt. I guess they can only postpone of all parties agree, but I, too will not be going (first home game I've missed in living memory!). I'm not too good mobility-wise and I could well get blown off my feet. If it goes ahead it will be a bit of a farce in these conditions.

Apparently the ground passed inspection - including Health and Safety - so game is on.

Ealing Trailfinders U16`s played Hammersmith and Fulham U16`s this morning !. Incredibly stormy and windy but no reason not to be played. This was played on one of the grass pitches.
The health and safety issues are trees and sheet materials flying through the air. I have driven home from Ealing and have seen three large trees down, one causing a road closure.

I know it usually is but I wouldn't like to be the cameraman up on the gantry with winds of 30mph gusting up to 60 forecast.

Conditions were surprisingly good considering the threat of storm Ciara and the pitch held up well in front of a crowd of 1285. The Pirates had a superb opening 40 minutes playing into a strong southwesterly controlling possession and going through multiple phases to score 3 tries and restricting Donny to a single penalty. The 2nd half was more evenly matched with the pirates finishing strongly to score with the final play after Donny had scored a well worked try of their own. Very pleased with the 5pts ahead of next weeks clash at Newcastle.

Watching on Facebook, Iβm afraid Donny offered nothing at all in the first half even with the benefit of the wind. The changes made to the backs for the second half made a big difference and, from a Pirates perspective it was a bit disappointing to only score two more tries with the wind advantage.
Apparently the heavens opened shortly after the end of the match so the weather was pretty kind.
