Death toll now upto 3 :(

Hopefully he and the others will bounce right back, get thier mind back in the game and use it as a reason to forget the horrors of the last few days.

It'll though make Fifa think as to games being held in disputed terratories

Ok l give in, where did the 6 minutes from in The City v Utd game and how much did Fergie pay the officials.

I think all this Health and Safety is going to far, in the world of football, if the ground is playable, why postpone the game, it is utter rubbish to say the outisde the ground is snowbound and icy, does the club and police think the fans are stupid, l remember when l was a kid, fans would walk miles in the snow to get to the ground, l always remember, in good old days of The Big Match, when they used an orange ball on the snowbound pitch, clubs needs finance, and provided the ref passes the pitch, then the game goes ahead,.

I was very surprised by the 6 minutes. I honestly did not see where it came from, the red card didn't take that long nor did the confusion after United's goal. :confused:

It's Chelsea's title. Nice one SAF.

Anyway. Glad United dropped points. Means our draw to Everton wasn't so bad.

Re: Football : Season 2009/2010
 
I understand that when there was a commotion on the sideline, with Fergie speaking to the fourth official, he then showed 6 minutes, and McLeish did his nut and asked, where did that come from. Sadly this is happening in the game of football where Fergie is concerned.

Subs took 30 seconds, the goal 30 secs, the red card 30sec, l made it 3 minutes, and l am a ref. Not unless he added more time for the fouls.

I don't think todays games should have gone ahead. The injury risk to the players was much higher in today's conditions and when you consider many teams did not have to play it seems unfair. Arsenal need some cover at the back though.

All grounds in the PL have undersoil heating, so therefore if the players got cold, all they had to do is lay on the grass.

I thought it was more to do with the fans (ie the ones paying) getting to and from the ground safely the reason why they postponed some games?

Re: Football : Season 2009/2010
 
Was it the local police authorities who made the call, based on whether or not they wanted up to 60,000 people arriving at the same place with the adverse weather?

All seems a bit nonsensical in this day and age with undersoil heating etc. Maybe some clubs just thought the turn out would be lower than normal so postponed!
