Weather For Saturday

[ElectroClaret]

Just a heads up for any Clarets travelling down to Bristol Saturday, weather forecast looking absolutely vile , snow, wind, heavy rain looks like the order of the day.

So take care all.

[ClaretTony]

And 14 degrees which is exactly 14 degrees warmer than it is outside here right now

[Andreshotboots]

Can't be as bad as Southampton a few years ago when storm whatever it was called hit.

The walk back to the car was horrific, that's the worst weather I've experienced in this country for a long time.

Safe travels to all though, leave plenty of time, and take it nice and easy...

[IanMcL]

I am cutting across country from Salisbury for the match, then return to Stirling, thereafter. Fingers crossed

Storm Dennis - horrible walk back to the car for us and we weren’t parked far away.

[hoosier-daddy]

-3 when I got up this morning. It can't make its mind up.

Fascinating information as ever, Frank.

[Woodleyclaret]

This is definitely one to watch on tv which is a shame as Bristol is a nice place for a weekend trip.

Yes, I remember walking back to the train station getting wet through and blown about. Not only memorable for that but, the Vydra great goal + that was the last sporting event I saw before lockdown.

We only played one more away game after that which was at Newcastle

I take it you like driving Ian?........that's a long haul.

[expoultryboy]

Hoping the trains are still running.

[Mornto]

Sounds like it’s going to be a rough trip! I’ve had a few away games where the weather was brutal, and it’s always a good idea to over-prepare. I'd suggest bringing extra layers, waterproofs, and maybe even some food in case you end up stuck in bad conditions. It’s never fun dealing with heavy rain or snow, but at least you’ll be ready for whatever comes your way. Stay safe!

[bfcjg]

I hope they do an early pitch inspection for those travelling.

[Whitgord]

I’m travelling down tomorrow. Really hope the game is still on come Saturday.

[dougcollins]

I hope he likes charging his car.

[Bosscat]

I hope he likes charging his car.

He loves charging his car ... Free Charging for Ian at Tesla Charging points (jammy b*gger )

[dougcollins]

Storm Bert. Which means Ashley was a girl, which wasn't obvious.

[Tackler49]

Hoping the trains are still running.

It’s the middle of autumn strong winds heavy rain which means leaves falling off the trees and onto the track that in turn means train cancellations i think expoultryboy with the weather forecast your hopes maybe dashed

[IanMcL]

I take it you like driving Ian?........that's a long haul.

It is. I do it often! Usually without the Brizzle detour.

[morpheus2]

Storm Bert. Which means Ashley was a girl, which wasn't obvious.

As long as Bert (whether they/them identifies as a they or a them) is allowed to change in the young girls locker room there shouldn't be a massive leftist meltdown.

[bfcmik]

For those of you driving down from up north, the forecast is awful with wind, snow, sleet and/or heavy rain all the way down and wet all the way home afterwards too.

[claretonthecoast1882]

We are on the 06.18 to Wolverhampton and have about half hour wait for the connection to Bristol

On the way back think it is about 20 minute wait but at Birmingham this time,hopefully they all run smoothly but I don't believe in miracles

[CnBtruntru]

Forecast in south east Ireland Storm Bert coming in, gales and very heavy rain for 12 hours from 10pm tonight, so expect it will be hitting Bristol early tomorrow

[kentonclaret]

According to the BBC forecast for Bristol tomorrow the heaviest of the rain is forecast to be from 16.00 hours onwards through the late afternoon/evening. Just as well we are scheduled for a 12.30 kick off if that is correct. Doesn’t make the travelling any easier though so good luck and stay safe to all of those making the trip.

It might be a bit wet tomorrow but with modern pitches we should still have a game .

[ArmchairDetective]

Hoping we might miss the worst of it by driving down today and returning on Sunday. Safe travels to all making the trip. See you down there.

Some brilliant football in the conditions there. 3 fantastic goals.

My thoughts exactly, nice passing considering the pitch.

Glad I saw this

Completely missed that this was a lunchtime kick off and was planning day around it being 3pm

[Tribesmen]

Red warning for myself in Galway , can't travel during that time and no doubt the power will go out as soon and the Clarets kick off .

Hummmmmmmmmmmm .

[FCBurnley]

Early 7.30 am kick off in Florida. Unusually cold here. Low forties at kick off so might just watch from the comfort of my bed. Stay safe if you are traveling

[AfloatinClaret]

It'll be reyt once you get there, Bristol's darn sarf and everybody knows that the sun always shines down there... even at night.

[TheOriginalLongsider]

Sunshine and showers pre match. Heavy rain afterwards. Could all change by tomorrow.

The sun always shines on tv - which is where I'll be watching.

Good to know that at least one of my posts was worth reading

Better passing than we’ve been watching this season.

that's positively mid day ! 4:30am for me

[Robbie_painter]

Been nothing wrong with the passing,it’s the direction of the passing that’s been the problem.Safe travels everyone who’s going and UTC.

[Les latcham fan club]

Very windy here in Bristol 40mph gusts a day for keeping the ball on the deck. A bit of rain and currently a barmy 13 degrees leaving my big coat at home.

[TheOriginalLongsider]

Arrived at the stadium 10:30. It’s not raining and just a bit breezy

[HahaYeah]

Forecast (met office) says it will be wazzing it down in Bristol today.

[wilks_bfc]

Let’s hope the same fate doesn’t come to our players & fans that has come to Portsmouth

They’ll be arriving/in Blackburn to find their game has been called off

[ElectroClaret]

Yep, Rovers off and so is Accy Stanley's game at Bradford.
