Scouse derby just called off.

Not too bad down here in Kent.

 

[simmo]

Just checking the trains and some of the early ones to Euston are cancelled from Manchester.
The 8.55 and 9.35

 

[DMA's]

With Selhurst park surrounded by houses etc I just don’t see how this is deemed safe to go ahead

Health and safety did a risk assessment and decided with the high winds it was too dangerous to jib over the fences.

It’s a bit of wind in London mate, not the wizard of oz.

Houses don’t blow over.

Palace are one of those teams I hate playing. They sit deep and have a forward line who will cause us problems on the counter. Throw in the wind and I'm not looking forward to this as it has banana skin written all over it.

Hopefully we can get an early goal to settle the nerves and then build on the Forest result.

I think Everton could do us a favour today as well. Last derby at Goodison and the conditions aren't great. The crowd will be fired up for it and Dyche loves spoiling the party! I can see that being a draw...

 

[Eric Hitchmough]

Never like to see a City game called off but with no Ake, Stones, Kovacic and Foden, and a half-fit Akanji, I suppose it wouldn’t be the worst time for it to happen.

Absolute joke!

I was on a works do there last night mate and there was no wind Liverpool just won't be up for it more like!!

 

[Kippax Street 1880]

Hopefully Akanji can make today I really don't want to see Eze up against dirty dick. I'd play the young lad Simpson-Pusey I think he'll be fine in between Manu and Ruben.

Ortega

Akanji
JSP
Dias
Gvardiol

Gundo
Kev
Grealish

Bernardo
Haaland
Doku

Thinking more tiles falling off roofs etc. If it’s not deemed safe for fans it wont go ahead is my thinking.

I was there 6 months ago and it was sunny.

Must be worried about Salah falling over

 

[marco]

lets close the gap with the scousers game off,it will put more presure on them later in the season

 

[GoatersLeftShin]

If Liverpool is off then we should try to get our game off and rest the players for next week!

Or we have a chance to close the gap, it may help psychologically

Justice for the called off game!
