Its a boxing day game at home shoved back to 5.30 for the Sky TV cameras for the third time on the trot so, I couldn't give a toss if its called off. It would be nice to see a home game on the 26th december kicking off in daylight, I hope every game Sky has shoved back over the festive period gets called off serve them right tossers.

However, why is this seemingly certain to be called off?.The pitch will be fine, the stands will be fine, it's just a case of working together, like Man City did last night to clear the necessary walkways, pavements, entrances etc. If that is done, then like most of the Heineken Cup Rugby matches at the weekend, this should go ahead surely?.People can then make their own minds up as to whether or not they want to travel to the game or watch it on TV. There's no public transport so the roads and car parks will be more over worked. There are 3000 who need to travel from London. They haven't had the same amount od snow in the nort west. It's played late so the pitch has more chance of freezing. Rugby isn't played with the ball on the ground so isn't a valid comparison. Who do you suggest gives up their Christmas to clear the surrounding area, are you willing to volunteer?Chris, I didn't say it was going to be easy to get the game on, far from it. But I personally don't think we should just give up.This is England Dave, of course we should just give up.

If we want too eventually crack the top four We need to except Sky run the show.
Aye. Never had it. And you're a mug if you do, especially when you consider they get much better coverage abroad for less money. You can sit down and watch any of the saturday kick-offs live on some of their foreign subscription services while the people who pay for thier empire can't.
Seen Tottenham play a few times this season and when they are motivated and going forward they are really, really good. I think we'll battle hard, but will fall well short in the quality stakes. They've outplayed us a few times over the course of the last couple of seasons and we've got away with some lucky points on occasion, but I think it will be beyond Villa this year unfortunately. Away win.

They inventing the stupid term.
That's abit of ignorance there
