Shrewsbury vs Port Vale

[Horsham Gull]

Abandoned due to a floodlight fire in the 64th minute

Reported on Sky Sports News as a fire in the electric generator in the main stand - caused a loss of power with the fire service called - no option but to abandon.

After what time does the score stand as Shrewsbury winning 1 - 0 would assume it was called off before that time.

Well for the Spurs/Bolton game nearly 2 weeks ago, it was 1-1 when abandoned and it started today 0-0. Bit unfair on Shrewsbury to start it again 0-0 when re-played.

Had it been called off after 88 mins I think it would have been a 1 0 win to Shrewsbury but not sure of the cut off time. So game will be replayed obviously starting 0 - 0.

A game can only be under consideration for a complete result if 75 (or maybe 80 can't remember off my head) minuets has passed. Even then the result has to be beyond doubt, i.e above 3 goal margin.

 

[Horsham Gull]

So really the sporting thing to do would be for Vale to put it in there own net and give Shrewsbury the 1-0 advantage back

Not true as we were told at Swindon by the police the ref was going to call the game off if the weather didn't improve and he would do it just before the cut off time as it was poring with rain and we were getting well beat, I think it was 4 - 0, not sure. So it happened and we lost the replayed game but we had already been promoted when we played it if memory serves me right.

I thought that it was after 23 mins of 2nd half (68mins) ie the last 1/4 of the game.

The rule has changed since then, although I have heard of that famous story at Swindon from my dad, where the game was called off, players went out for a drink, and then the night before the referee changed his mind again.

Always thought it was 72 mins for some reason.

The Laws of the game say "An abandoned match is replayed unless the competition rules provide
otherwise." - so do they?

 

[BensGrandad]

Wasnt there a cup tie replayed that Fulham were involved in due to crowd encroachment on to the pitch after about 88mins or so.

If you get sent off in an abandoned game, is the red card rescinded?

No but I can never understand why as the game didn't exist in the records.

I just wanted to check, did we deffinitely lose the re-played match? I thought we were getting spanked, it was abandoned but we then back and won it when it was re-arranged? Might be wrong, I just thought I'd heard the story that we went there and won?

 

[BensGrandad]

Memory is not at the best now but I think that we lost about 2 - 1 but had been promoted meantime.

According to this, your memory was spot on.
Swindon v Brighton (abandoned))

No that was a league game in 83 and the result stood.

 

[Frank Inkerman]

If you were suspended and the game was abandoned does the game still count as one of the ones that you have to miss?
My thoughts would be not as the game still has to be completed.
