England game

Has been called off tomorrow night as a result of trouble in London - as have at least 4 carling cup ties.

If it goes on much longer I can see the Everton game off on Saturday too

Shouldnt have been played anyway but i would rather it be on and London safe. Its a sad day in England when we cancel national football matches because of mindless scum bags.

Why not just play it at old trafford or st james park? not that im arsed, i thought one of our lads was nailed on to get injured anyway.

Ticketing, planning, travel etc. It would be to big of a logistical nightmare to change it with 36 hours notice. Good idea none the less.

What do you mean, the England game was exactly what was required to take their minds off other things.

Not the 1st time a game called off late in the day against the cloggies.

in about 1978 a game was called off with people inside Wembley, when thick fog descended.
