Post subject: Abandoned games |
|
|
Evening all
I've asked a few questions on this forum over the years and always received lots of good advice/help. Here we go again then....
I'm a bit of a stats freak, can't get enough of them. My latest project (and please don't ask me why:)) is completing a list of all abandoned games. So by abandoned, obviously I mean the game has to have kicked off as opposed to postponed games!
I appreciate the list below is a monster, but if you have any records of your teams abandoned games, can you check against mine and let me know what I'm missing.
I 'think' I have complete lists for: (although that is only my opinion)
West Ham United 7
Chesterfield 8
Arsenal 16
Hull City 9
Tottenham Hotspur 9
Chesterfield Town 4
Ipswich Town 7
Colchester United 7
Macclesfield Town 4
Plymouth (Post WW2) 12
QPR 4
Gillingham 4
Wrexham 6
Leeds United 8
Watford 8
West Bromwich Albion 16
Liverpool 7
Man City. 19. I have 18 so possibly 1 missing?
I'm looking at the top 4 divisions & FA Cup games although I have a few National League games in there so they can also be added to.
So here it is.....and all I can say is, I'm glad we have copy & paste!
Enjoy

A couple of West Ham updates
28.12.1965 West Ham United v Aston Villa A-A 1st Division - this was postponed rather than abandoned
I can add one wartime game as well
07.09.1940 West Ham United v Tottenham Hotspur Football League Competition (Southern Section) - abandoned on 80 minutes due to air raid warning - Spurs were winning 4-1 and the result was allowed to stand. This was the first day of the Blitz and the first bombs fell on the docks a couple of miles away about 20 minutes later |

Shouldn't have forgotten this one.
Napoli v Swindon Town 28.05.1970 abandoned after 79 minutes due to Napoli fans throwing concrete blocks onto the pitch. This was the Anglo Italian Cup final, Swindon were 3-0 up and the result stood and Swindon awarded the trophy. |

A couple of Torquay United games that were abandoned for your records:-
1921-22. Torquay United v Spencer Moulton, 8th October 1921. FA Cup game. Abandoned in the 75th minute due to fog. Score was 2-0 to Torquay.
1970-71. Torquay United v Shrewsbury Town, 17th March 1971. Division Three game. Abandoned in the 63rd minute due to torrential rain (Iwas there!!). Crowd at the time was Torquay lowest at 2,266. The score at the time was 1-1. The re-arranged game was played 6th May 1971 and the score was 1-0 (Welsh) to Torquay.
I do have some others that I will dig up with games that I attended, but I need to find details. Hope that this helps you in your quest. |

I see you have the Northampton v MK Dons game. I was there, it really was a miserable evening. The Dons clearly didn't fancy it. The Cobblers, battling relegation were on top kicking against the wind in the first half. The announcement abandoning the game was made at half-time, so ensuring that we were not entitled to our money back. The decision was made easier for the ref as both managers agreed. It was a missed opportunity for the
Cobblers, who should have gone all out for a win that was there for the taking. They lost the replayed game and went down by one point.
My only other experience was a United Counties League game between ON Chennecks and Oadby town in 2020, abandoned due to punch up caused by racist comments from the crowd. But I doubt if anything will beat the recent Gateshead friendly, abandoned due to a hearse on the pitch.

Three that I can think of involving Hayes/Hayes & Yeading United
28/12/96 Stevenage v Hayes. Conference.
Abandoned at half-time due to frozen pitch, score was 3-0 to Stevenage. Game should never have started. Stuart Beevor's first half hat-trick null & void !!! (Game replayed 17/2/97, 2-0 home win)
4/3/97. Woking v. Hayes. Conference.
Abandoned at 0-0 after approx 20 mins, hole suddenly opened up in pitch ! Drain under pitch had collapsed. (Game replayed 25/3/97, 1-2 away win)
5/9/2009 Gateshead v Hayes & Yeading Utd. Conference Premier.
Serious leg injury to Martin Brittain of Gateshead on 74 mins, requiring ambulance team treatment. Delay of approx an hour. Referee Andrew Madley instructed players to restart, but Gateshead refused to return. Game was 0-0 at that point, result allowed to stand, but Gateshead had the point deducted. _________________ Visit http://nwmfootball.com/ for programmes, books, DVDs, shirts & sportswear and other football collectables.

WOW, thank you all so much, some good games to add to the list there, and some good memories....I struggle to remember what I had for breakfast!
All 22 players sent off in one game....imagine if they had VAR, would take hours to sort out:)
Please feel free to add more if anything springs to mind.
I'm off out now to watch a Champions League game.....but which one?
Not you Nick, you know where I live

A Couple I have been to
4/1/2003 - Gillingham v Sheff Wed FA Cup 3R - abandoned in the second half due to snow, can't remember what minute or score.
--Game was replayed on 7/Jan/2003
21/10/17 - AFC Fylde v Maidstone - National League think it was 2-1 at the time waterlogged pitch probably shouldn't have started in all honesty, got abandoned just after half time
-- Game was replayed on 23/01/18 Maidstone fans got free coach and free entry (you had to show your ticket stub from the original game and it was swapped to a free one for the new game) with AFC Fylde winning 3-0
If you want to go further down the pyramid:
19/9/20 - Chatham v Glebe - SCEFL 2-1 incident seeming to have happened at the 22nd minute as ref spoke to the Glebe assistant manager and then the Chatham goalkeeper which took about 5 minutes, Chatham came out for the second half and some of the Glebe players came out but all stood close to the tunnel area before all walking off with the officials and game was called off
Will check my records to see what else i can find out.
Certainly been a few where the fans have been inside the stadium programmes/food drink being sold and then the game called off for one reason or another, waterlogged pitch, damaged pitch, home team stuck on the Dartford crossing (Away team at the ground), but in these instances the game had NOT kicked off. |
