Just throwing this one out there again.

Surprisingly, I can't find Manchester United abandoned games other than these:

18.11.1893 Sunderland AFC v Newton Heath A-A @ 1-0
16.12.1905 Leeds City v Manchester United A-A @ 0-1
06.03.1909 Burnley v Manchester United A-A @ 1-0 FA Cup
27.08.1960 Manchester City v Manchester United A-A @ 2-2
22.12.1962 Manchester United v Arsenal A-A @ 1-0
27.04.1974 Manchester United v Manchester City A-A @ 0-1 @ 85 mins but result stood

I'm sure there must be a few more, anyone able to add to it?

A few more teams I'm trying to complete at the moment:
I am aware of these Middlesbrough abandoned games.

25.12.1912 Bradford City AFC v Middlesbrough A-A @ 1-0
03.04.1915 Middlesbrough v Oldham Athletic AFC A-A @ 4-1
16.11.1929 Arsenal v Middlesbrough A-A @ 1-0
10.01.1959 Middlesbrough v Birmingham City A-A FA Cup
11.02.2012 Ipswich Town v Middlesbrough A-A @ 0-0

Can you add to these Millwall games:

14.01.1933 Reading v Millwall A-A @ 2-0 FA Cup
25.11.1950 Crystal Palace v Millwall A-A @ 0-0 FA Cup
26.12.1959 Millwall v Stockport County A-A
22.12.1962 Watford v Millwall A-A @ 2-1
04.11.1967 Cardiff City v Millwall A-A @ 2-2
12.09.1970 Millwall v Sheffield United A-A @ 0-0
30.12.2006 Northampton Town v Millwall A-A @ 0-1

And finally for now. Can anyone add to these Everton abandonments?:

26.11.1904 Woolwich Arsenal v Everton A-A @ 1-3
09.02.1921 Manchester City v Everton A-A @ 0-0
17.12.1969 Tottenham Hotspur v Everton A-A
01.01.1979 Bolton Wanderers v Everton

I think I have 99% complete A-A games from the following:

Arsenal
Chesterfield
Colchester
Doncaster
Gillingham
Hull City
Ipswich
Leeds Utd
Liverpool
Macclesfield
Manchester City
Northampton
QPR
Sheffield Utd
Sunderland
Tottenham
Watford
West Ham
West Brom
Wolves

So if you have access to other teams complete histories, can you check out abandoned games for me. Any help, much appreciated.

Not too sure how far you are going down. There was a game abandoned last December 7. VCD Athletic v Windsor & Eton in the FA Vase 3rd Rd. Windsor & Eton were leading 3-0 when the game was abandoned in the 46th minute owing to a serious injury to one of the VCD players. The game was replayed and VCD won 2-0.

As to fog, how the Leicester City v QPR FA Cup game was allowed to be played, and with a white ball, is beyond anyone's guess. No one could see the other end of the ground and barely the other side of the field.

Hi ndg

Many thanks for that addition. The original plan was to cover the top 4 divisions, then it went down to include the National league + N&S. Now I seem to be well down the pyramid but all are welcome, they will go on a list somewhere
