Fully agree with your sentiments, Claremont Man. I remember the tragedy well (at least reading about it) because it was only a few weeks after my first ever Hendon game. I have been wary of lightning and thunder at any sports event ever since.

When we had our match with Enfield abandoned at Southbury Road in April 1999, I seem to recall there had been a thunderstorm as well as heavy rain that made the pitch unplayable and a couple of the Enfield officials talked about the incident 32 years earlier.
