Arsenal (a) pre-match thread (Game given go ahead 1350hrs)

Call it off!

Looks a lottery in that weather.

Exactly agreed

 

[schfc6]

Can't see the ball at Wembley. If the weather continues it would be daft to play it. Let alone the safety aspect of fans.

Knowing the league and with sky they will leave it as long as possible before deciding to call it off,so after a load of fans travel down they will then be told about 6pm that the game is off ..

What was the game we played in a blizzard a few years back may have been stoke at home possibly? Is the game tomorrow looking like being called off,suppose it soots us better if it was ...

West Brom away 2nd half was bad on Boxing Day a few years ago. The drive back was hideous

Wasn't there also a west brom game with heavy snow recently? Away game?

Ahh I should read all the thread before replying. Answered above

Brushing snow off the lines at Wembley which is in a blizzard.

It's a shame they don't have a retractable roof at Wembley!

Hang on.

Foul evening in West London tonight, perished.

I'm torn because I can't wait to watch City play but at the same time it would probably suit us if it's postponed.

Can’t see this going ahead although would prefer it to as the Tarquins will shit themselves at the first sight of a snowflake.

If it does, we’ll pump them 3-0 again.

Spurs played tonight at Wembley. Rochdale travelled down. Similar situation. Unless weather forecast changes, I can't see it getting called off

24 hours is a long ass time if it snows incessantly Marv.

 

[dawlish dave]

If its off play the game in lieu of Brighton on 17/3.

Would be strange if they didn't rearrange it in light of any safety concerns with that date available to both clubs. Unless there's an agreement between Sky, BT and the BBC regarding televised games on FA Cup weekends and Sky are applying pressure for it to go ahead if at all possible.

According to BBC, only snow showers tomorrow morning, then pretty clear from 2, and above freezing. It'll be on.

Yep. Near certain it will be on.

I hope you're right but the Met Office is saying very much the opposite.

 

[Bewar3them00n]

It’s snowing steadily in London, -5’C and predicted to snow from the early hours all day.
Decision to be made in the morning

Fulham at home

That was the game Silva ought to have grabbed a hattrick and the third would have been a beauty. What a pity that was..
