Arsenal v Chelsea

[Spionkop69]

Rumours abound that the game might be called off due to "adverse" weather conditions making it impossible for them to travel to and from the game.

What's the problem? I thought all Chelsea and Arsenal fans lived in London. So they can fucking walk it.

Surely they all live a few minutes from the ground. That's what I've always been led to believe.

*some cunt on Twitter called me a cockney bin dipper over the weekend, hence my overdose of sarcasm.

You're the worst kind of wool

Adverse weather conditions?

Is it not just raining?

 

[Piedro]

Game called off, we are top at Xmas. Sound.

Its a bit windy too. Word is people will be advised not to travel anywhere between midnight and 9am tonight. Its a shambles. Its a bit of fucking wind.

 

[FoxForceFive]

Hahaha. Ridiculous.

Good job you southerners don't have to live in somewhere like Inverness where they get proper weather.

 

[Spionkop69]

No. I'm better than you because my journey is longer and ergo I put more time into supporting my team. Not to mention the time spent defending my allegiance to the fuckwits I happen to live around. So ya boo sucks to you, you 30 minutes away wool.

*shakes head*

Worst kind of wool

It's windy in the big city, boo hoo. What they mean is Arsenal's fantastic brand spanking new stadium is insufficient, and Chelsea fans can't get the ferry.

 

[Mystic]

Adverse weather conditions my arse. I live at most an hour away from the emirates and its slightly drizzly here.

 

[Spionkop69]

It hasn't been called off yet. Just that the world seems to be going overboard about a few 50mph gusts we might get later.

Arsenal Bolton at the emirates was called off a few years ago too -nothing wrong with the ground. Their insurers feared a heap of claims from people injuring themselves in and around the stadium

Yeah, we did the same when we played a few years ago (Arsenal?), because of ice though. It's just wet and windy today.

Surely given the fact that Arsenal, purveyors of the beautiful game that they are, never play a pass to a player further than 2m away and never, but never in the air, would mean that wind is not an important factor.

 

[Red Astaire]

I can't find anywhere that says it's called off. Nothing on the BBC or the official PL website.

Because it's not

It might get called off

At least you're listening. Wool

Am confused who to root for, a draw sounds right, Chelsea win could generate unhelpful momentum

 

[Hansern]

Chelsea will play for a draw and get it. 1-1 or 0-0

Why would you want anything other than a draw?

 

[red_maradona]

Why would you want anything other than a draw?

a loss could be crucial in demotivating arsenal after their loss to city and hopefully result in a gradual decline? but a draw is prob the best result.

 

[Spionkop69]

Of course a draw is better! They both drop points and they're both rivals!

 

[Ossi]

Any streams?

 

[Mystic]

Chelsea win or draw are the two outcomes to route for.

 

[Shadey]

Come on charsenal

Any streams?

I'm using the top Acestream link of the Delvey1 section. It's not the highest quality but I find Delvey1 the best compromise between quality and reliability.

This is well fucking dull - *Checks to see if Question Of Sport Xmas special is still on* 😉

 

[Buddha]

How has Mourinho turned a squad full of attacking talent into a pedestrian, dull side?

We can beat Chelsea next week.

 

[keniget]

This game has got no tempo at all. Really weird to watch.
