Critics of the club will be keen to point these out as they consider Chelsea’s willingness to get the game with United postponed early, rather than waiting until late morning today to inspect the weather and conditions at Stamford Bridge.
Only a fortnight ago, Chelsea publicly argued on their own website: ‘In this day and age, with all the modern technology, it is very rare you get a game called off. The pitch would have to be frozen solid or completely under water to be called off, which shouldn’t happen at Stamford Bridge.’
Head groundsman Jason Griffin said: ‘At Stamford Bridge, we have a water pipe system. It’s like a big radiator pumping hot water under the pitch to keep it warm. You set the temperature to go up and down, depending on the weather forecast. It’s usually between 15 and 20 degrees Centigrade. If the temperature ever gets too high, I get an alert on my phone and I would know there was a problem.’
Across London, Arsenal did not postpone yesterday’s match with Stoke until less than three hours before the game.
An Arsenal statement read: ‘Further to a huge deluge of snow in North London, starting over the Emirates Stadium at 11.38am, match referee Lee Mason made the decision at 12.07pm to postpone today’s match. Approximately three inches of snow fell over this half-hour period and there continues to be heavy snowfall with no apparent let-up.’
只怕依場波搞到要安排係 April / May 先有期打...
到時可能 5 日內 back-to-back 打哂 2 循環
United and Chelsea must now unravel heavy fixture congestion to try to arrive at a mutually convenient day to rearrange the match ahead of the London club’s visit to Old Trafford on May 7.
Townsend explained the difficulties when he said: ‘We have rearranged our recently postponed match with Blackpool for January 25, but it’s hard to see a new date for Chelsea. Although we have a Carling Cup semi-final date free, on January 11 or 12, I don’t think we will want to play then as we have Liverpool in the FA Cup third round on January 9; and Tottenham away on January 16.
‘Then, in February and March, we play our Champions League matches against Marseille in weeks two and four, while Chelsea play theirs against FC Copenhagen in weeks one and three. Of course, the longer both teams are in the FA Cup, the more difficult it will be to rearrange the match.’ |

A win for City would result in them being top of the table at Christmas for the first time since 1929.
