Burnley and Sunderland . . .

Sitting in the Burnley Cricket Club clubhouse eating a burger and saw on the tv that the match was off - wind made their roof unstable.
Drove up to Sunderland in the winter only to get several miles from the ground and heard on the radio that the match was off due to dangerous road conditions around the ground.
Joys of being an away supporter.
