Arsenal Vs Manchester City (PL)

Wouldn’t they play it anyway though? If the players can make it and the pitch is in the right condition why not go ahead then?

Yeah you’d think pitch would be fine, but who knows?! And I guess the main concern would perhaps be fan safety in and around the stadium. Matches have been called off for less severe weather.

Transport links are pretty screwed too. Man City fans will have to leave early if they want to get back to Manchester via train tonight. I can’t see that many travelling down for it tbh. Going to be a pretty low attendance tonight if it does go ahead.

A stadium as modern as the Emirates should have pitch heating so unless it snows very close to the game I can’t imagine the pitch not being in perfect condition when it matters. As far as fan safety goes I agree though if only the away fans don’t make it I don’t see much reason to cancel the whole game.

What’s happened to the twitter embedding @Bl1nk it’s gone all weird and doesn’t post the full tweet or picture

@Calum If there’s anything in the tweet after the number it shows as a link rather than a tweet.

When have they ever cancelled a game before because of away fans not making it?

As an away supporter you just put up with weather, traffic etc getting in the way every now and again

So is this going through?

It would have been cancelled by now.

ARE CITY THERE YET? :crossed_fingers::crossed_fingers::crossed_fingers:

We’ll probably win 1-0 but have it downgraded to a 0-3 loss and disqualification for illegal line colouring.

Welbeck…

No Wilshere. I don’t care about the game though.

I’d rather Welbeck than Iwobi.
