I see the Daggers/Brentford game was called off due to this. How many times has this happened now this season, must have been a few.
Has this ever happened at GGL? Can't say i can remember it happening in the time i've been going but then, i've got a terrible memory!!

We lost half the lights in a match v Boreham Wood but played on (see last sats proggy).
I can remember an abandonment for fog in Feb/Mar 1973 against Stortford & also because of snow in the early 80's v Redhill. We were losing both & won each of the rescheduled matches. Also for ice against Leatherhead in Jan 77.

Your memory is much better than mine but didn't we have one at home to Wycombe abandoned in the first half after we spent the morning trying to clear the pitch of snow only to find the area we cleaned froze again at KO and it became an ice rink? Maybe it was Leatherhead or Redhill or maybe my age is getting the better of me I remember one game getting called off for fog just before kickoff and ten mins later visibilty was perfect!

Newbury at home in the league cup was abandoned a few years back. Pitch froze.
Fairly sure we were 2 up and cruising. Re-match was either decided late in ET or went all the way to pens.....

I seem to remember one game -SSC?- against Walton Casuals in the mid/late 90s that was abandoned about 20 minutes in due to the weather, which certainly hadn't changed since kick-off!
