ClaretMahoney Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 Don't know if this has been covered but is this being shown on tele at all? On SS this morning (about 3 hours ago) it said it was on Sky Sports... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blandy Posted January 12, 2010 Moderator Share Posted January 12, 2010 Pretty sure Dunn is on 4 bookings, maybe a suspension if he's booked. a 5th booking after new year does not result in a suspension now. End of Feb isn't it, rather than end of the year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Lions_Roar Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 is there any fear this game maybe cancelled? Anything could happen between now and thursday. Lets pray it doesn't start snowing again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanky Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 End of Feb isn't it, rather than end of the year? They were saying on ESPN that it is the turn of the new year. Then again dunno how reliable the commentator was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian_Taylor Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 Surely they will do everything they can to make it go ahead given last weeks cancellations. I'm not gonna lose more money on advance train fares!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

b6bloke Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 I dont think this game is going to be on. What do you base this on? Have you checked the weather? are you in Blackburn? Becasue i have checked the weather and it looks fine apart from maybe the odd fluttering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Becasue i have checked the weather and it looks fine apart from maybe the odd fluttering. As you know I'm pretty close and we've got nothing as yet, that said there is some snow - a very light new covering so far - only a few miles away in Lytham. I'll be keeping an eye on this all day as I need to let work know my availability for tomorrow too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paulanddonya Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 I said it in the Generals thread on Monday - I reckon this game will be off, and it will have sod all to do with the weather. Blackburn have injury problems, Blackburn are low on confidence, Blackburn are at home 1st leg. They will look for any excuse to get this called off in my opinion to get their players back, to get home leg advantage and to try and put a couple of results together in the league. My expectation - if there is one snowflake anywhere around Lancashire they will say the surrounding roads are unsafe. It happens - look at West Ham !!! And we did it about 10 yrs ago - Man City at home if I recall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They can't do that I wouldn't have thought. Surely it has to be the way the draw came out which is us at home second. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they had to, they'd make the away leg next wednesday when we were supposed to be at home, and then we'd have to re arrange the home leg. That's what they have done with the Mancs semi-final. There is no way they'd play the home leg before the away, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dudley_villa Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 Whatever and whenever it happens the away leg will be played first as this was the way it was drawed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
