In the bowl of the stadium it won't be that bad. I've been to games in extreme weather and to see this postponed is a surprise, or at least it was an hour ago when it was announced. Just my opinion.


Did you try to get to the game?
I live 15 mins walk, or 5 mins drive. Could and would have easily gotten there.

Just got a text off City at 7.40pm saying the game is off!! Cheers but I knew from Twitter over an hour ago!!

Utter cobblers.

You obviously haven't been very often. The enclosed bowl does fuck all to stop the wind, when it blows it's fucking ridiculous in the stadium.


The North stand gets it worse due to the emergency tunnel, it aint bad in the south stand.

Translation: "I'm alright, Jack."
He asked a question. I answered it.

If you had tried to get there ( which you never do) you would have witnessed ridiculous conditions.

You don't half talk some shit mate.

Fucking brilliant. Just done a 50-mile round trip up the M66 in high winds for fuck all. But apparently it's for our safety when you call it off just as fans who travel from far away are arriving and long after they set off. No, safety would be calling it off well before time because you've had advance notice of high winds all day and red warning issued last night. Cheers City, cheers a fucking bunch. Can I be reimbursed for petrol because some fucking incompetents can't decide it's too windy until an hour before kick off?

If it was so easy to predict how bad conditions were going to be in advance,maybe you're the incompetent one for travelling.

You could always get a no-win no-fee solicitor on the police's case for your £2.75 petrol money.
 
Glad it's called off to be honest. Players get the rest and we won't risk any injuries in a match with this weather and which Sunderland would probably use as an excuse to clog our players every chance they get.

It's not easy to predict if a game will be called off though is it clever knob. Everton (-7 degrees) was worse. Fulham (horrendous snow) was miles worse. Neither called off.

Surely you're taking the piss? It's fucking ridiculous out there, certainly not conditions to play a game of football.

To be fair Pidge, it wasn't called off due to conditions within the stadium. This came from the police. Probably not a good idea to let thousands in/out of the area in this weather.

That's what I don't really understand. They left it until the majority of those fans were probably out in the area. I don't live in Greater Manchester so don't know what the weather was like earlier this evening. Did it deteriorate much in the last couple of hours?
