Plenty of stories about the coldest and the wettest over the years but what's one you've been to either in the UK or abroad where you felt genuinely like you were going to pass out and wondered how the players found in possible to run around?
Mine - Birmingham City at home, opening game of the season 2000/01. So hot, some poor kid rejected his lunch the row in-front of us on the lower loft. The stench, oh God the stench. There was no escaping it. The match was terrible too.
Definitely Blackpool in 2003 but another one that springs to mind is the opening home match of the following season against Rotherham. I remember it because we'd won a club draw to watch a match in one of the hospitality boxes and this was the game and recall being thankful that we were watching from a nice air conditioned box as it was roasting outside.
