Should be an interesting merseyside derby, Liverpool are on a great run lately, Everton are on anything but. Going by form alone should make for a Liverpool win but evrerybody knows that in a derby form goes out the window. Hard one to call i can see it ending in a draw with drunken duncan causing some incident

I have no idea. It's a derby so anything can happen, however I suspect at best for Everton is a draw. It will be a liverpool draw or win.
Fulham v Aston Villa, 19:45

Draw[neither teams convince me they can win this game]
Man City v Chelsea, 19:45

draw [ Pearce seems to understand Chelsea, so I'm ****ing praying they can get a draw. This is one match where Chelsea won't be as confident, as City(ironically as hell) seem to be the only team outside the top 3 who can stop Chelsea]

Fingers crossed for the Pool, Moyes has really put the proverbials up his troops!!

Bolton vs. Boro postponed due to frozen pitch, Ewood Park set for pitch inspection at 6.00.

therecklessone

As a Spurs fan I'm quite surprised we're tipped to win by everyone so far...

West Brom's a tricky place to visit, and Ledly King will be a big loss.

I'll settle for a draw.

No way - just undersoil heating for every club. Was just watching Sky Sports news, they have had snow in london around the west ham area, and their undersoil heating has worked wonders - the pitch looks amazing. Am actually looking forward to the highlights of that match tonight, both teams are excellent going forward on current form, could be some high scoring.

This does not always work as boltons undersoil heating failed in places, leading to their game being called off. There were pictures off the ref knocking on the ground - frozen solid in places.

leads me to ask the question - anybody know if blackburn have undersoil heating?


EDIT: Newcastle v Charlton - Sky Sports News say its definitely on, they have not even cleared the snow yet?? fair play if it does go ahead.

wheres me jumpa

anybody know what happens my acummulator with paddy power now that the blackburn sunderland game is off?

Lemlin

Yep, Ewood does. I even think it was one of the first pitches to have it, not sure though.

I'm waiting to hear from on the forum on the official website. Alot of the fans there are asking questions too.

Still, we don't mind waiting a few weeks for the 3 points. It'll give the players an extra chance to rest for the game on Saturday.

Declared void AFAIK.

Villain

Bolton game is off due to the underground heating failing to work in central areas of the pitch. Not a surprise really considering tempatures are set to get near -10c in England!!

The cancelled match is declared void, but the remaining matches are honoured.

Everton - Liverpool team news

No Fergerson even on the bench for the Toffees, Cisse in for 'nando. With Gerrard wide right. Sissoko in the middle and a red card waiting to happen I suspect.

Its listed on the Sky website as "postponed due to safety reasons".

Either way, my fantasy team is well fecked after a great day Monday. I'm now missing Whitehead, Gamst Pedersen, Stelios and Bent.

MrJoeSoap

Yeah whats the craic with the FF teams? Will the players missing tonight get the points when the game is played at its later date or will subs just be implemented tonight? I'm missing over half my team.

Took 306 to Middlesbrough on a Sunday back in August to see their team win 3-0, can't imagine too many would venture that far north on a freezing cold Wednesday when they're on a slump...:D

Still, pain in the arse for any of the brave souls who did travel.

Cancellation hits my fantasy football team hard, I'd transferred in Owen for Keane (2nd transfer so -4pts) when the match was "declared" on...:(

digiman

Even worse news for Fantasy Teams is that Frank Lampard is out for Chelsea, thankfully I have Rooney as my captain tonight, you will also get no points for them this week. If you have them in your team the gameweek that the matches are played you will get the points then.

Open to correction, but if a team isn't playing on the night then players from that team will not be subbed out for you (its only if they miss their teams game that you get a sub).

was he close to a record consecutive appearances or something?

therecklessone

On second thoughts, that Newcastle cancellation is a disgrace. BBC site says decision was made 25 minutes before the match was due to start, the few Charlton fans who'd travelled (and the Toon fans who braved a bitterly cold night to go out bare-chested ) have every reason to be pissed off.

There should be a cut off point during the day for these decisions, 2pm at the latest, regardless of the effect it has on fixture congestion.

i cant believe they posted around word around 6:30 that it was definitely going ahead, and as sky sports were reporting this they had live pictures and at least 1/4 of the pitch was still covered in snow??

I think he now has the record, its something like 164 consecutive matches, he only broke it in the last couple of weeks as far as I know.

I also see that Fabregas is on the bench for Arsenal, not good again for my Fantasy team, there will be some very low scores in this gameweek I would imagine.:mad:
