Apparently deferred to 11.45 meeting now..
Well that’s a big plus. Plenty of time for things to improve hopefully.
And a couple of hours to try to understand that the alien liquid coming from the sky isnt dangerous.
Would be funny if Utd’s bus slide and crashed caused minor damage and no injuries without the need for bottles.
Not by me. Rain/sleet.
I think it'll be fine. Gritters out, it's already slushy in areas.
This is a showpiece football event. I don't think the club or the PL want this to be postponed
It’s mixed here. Some brief spells of flakes, others sleet and some periods of rain.
That’s as good an update as we could hope for. All depends now on the weather from now til 12.
It won't be down to the club or PL now though. The Safety Advisory Group is the local authority and they won't want to get compensation claims for anything.
This country a) isn't used to it so can't cope and is b) extremely risk averse and will be led by those people whose job it is to say zero people will fall over, who only get the chance to assert their authority like this once or twice a year. That's why the jury remains out.
Either way those flying into Liverpool or Manchester aren't going to make it.

You have to factor in mongs who wear incorrect footwear and fall over.
We're inherently shit
To be fair it’s been about 15 years since we had any decent snowfall here.
Yeah, we had an amber alert on Friday cause it was expected to snow 50 cm.
I can understand though that you cant plan for this if you arent used to it, so no issue there.
That said. Its not dangerous.
True, but the council seems to be doing everything it can by putting out more gritters. And I'm always surprised people falling over due to snow/ice/fog/rain can claim compensation, as that's just unlucky and more often than not their own fault.
I'm still cautiously optimistic.
Ruben Amorim: Man Utd boss says his players are 'too anxious, too afraid'
Manchester United's players are sometimes "too anxious, too afraid to play football" on the pitch, says boss Ruben Amorim.

In my M&A days I used to do a lot of work with Canadian pension funds. They'd leave behind 2-3 feet of snow in Toronto and then have to circle for an hour before landing at Heathrow because of 1 inch at this end. It's embarrassing how badly we cope.
