VillaAndLoyal Posted December 16, 2010 Share Posted December 16, 2010 Anyone who has just watched the Bayer Leverkusen vs. Athletico Madrid match will seriously be wondering what all the fuss is about. A bit of snow and the whole country grinds to a halt it seems... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chappy Posted December 16, 2010 Share Posted December 16, 2010 I will be severely pissed off if this is cancelled. We had heavy snow here today and people were driving and cycling around as if nothing had happened. What is it with our country and not being able to cope with a bit of snow?!

Erm, the "no win, no fee" blame culture? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LincsVilla Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 The snow 20 minutes from Wigan is falling rather heavily and settling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LincsVilla Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 Snow is showing no signs of stopping. Had about two inches in the last few hours in Chorley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LancsVillan Posted December 17, 2010 Moderator Share Posted December 17, 2010 Just had a snowball fight in the four inches of snow not half an hour from Wigan BUT its half that only a couple of miles down t'road it is very localised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villan_avfc Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 announcement at 10am apparently. having read lots of comments from wigan fans living in the area, there's not a chance this game will go ahead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dappadan Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 Looking on wiganer forum and they reckon no chance of the game being played one even says the pitch is covered in 6 inch of snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maradona10 Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 Wigan want this one off, with all the injuries/suspensions they have it suits to call the game off! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maradona10 Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 But they need to announce it soon, massive problems on the M6 leading up to Wigan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markavfc40 Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 This won't go ahead. They have had loads of snow over night and its supposedly chaos on the M6 with a number of lorries having jack knifed. I was meant to be driving up. Confirmation of it being off is inevitable.

Ulver Posted December 18, 2010 Author Share Posted December 18, 2010 I wish they'd hurry up and make a decision so I can go back to bed. Somebody has put this up on Vital Wiagn ... "The Match Wigan Athletic v Aston Villa has been Postsponed ..." But how do we know if its true ? http://boards.footymad.net/forum.php?tno=558&fid=516&sty=2&act=1&mid=2119130036 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
