FANS of Edinburgh City and Montrose would have been just as bemused as Simon Thomas for why their game was abandoned.
The two sides were going head-to-head in a Scottish League One clash.
But, the match had to be suspended for an unusual reason.
It was one that caused an astonished Thomas to pause before he explained on Gillette Soccer Saturday.

He began: "The game has been abandoned due to wind problems.
"Something I never thought I would say on a Gillette Soccer Saturday."
Edinburgh City confirmed the game was suspended on their X account.
They wrote: "The match has been called off due to heavy winds and unplayable conditions.
"We apologise for any inconvenience caused."
After just 10 minutes, Edinburgh City's social media hinted to the appalling weather conditions.
They shared: "10" The wind is crazy but it's been end to end so far! 0-0.'
Montrose also confirmed the game was off on X.
They wrote: "GAME ABANDONED Due to the strong winds from Storm Kathleen, the ref has called proceedings to a halt after just 24 mins."

The Atlantic storm has sparked travel delays, power cuts and could cause life-threatening debris along the west coast from Cornwall to Scotland.
Saturday has provisionally become the hottest day of the year so far with 20.9C recorded, the Met Office said.
The mercury topped out in Santon Downham, Suffolk, on Saturday afternoon.
But while it was hot for some, it was very wet for others as snaps showed the River Ouse had burst its banks in York, flooding the city.
A yellow wind warning is in place for the whole west coast and Northern Ireland until 10pm tonight.
