They reckon it's already starting to calm down in Manchester after riots started just today. Youths getting "bored" was the phrase on the radio a second ago. Doubt it'll be off. Well i hope not anyway

there's long enough for it to calm down, so no, i don't expect it will be called off.

I am not sure of the Football League regulations on this but would Leicester be entitled to request a postponement if their Captain is going to be unavailable because he is going rioting and looting ?

Check out the bottom right corner of tomorrows Daily Mirror. Surely if the Prem games face the axe then our's will be in jeopardy again.

FA said earler today there's no reason to postpone games outside of London - admittedly before any shit went down in Leicester

Big difference between an afternoon game and an evening game.

I would be surprised if the game was called off due to last nights events.

14 people arrested due to disorder and criminal damage offences, the police were pretty much on top of it all night.

Which was a point that I made at work today. I note that the majority of the trouble, especially in London, has been from young blacks and not young Asians - and Leicester does have a very large Asian community.

I hope not, train tickets booked, it's a right pain to get a refund.

There is zero chance of it being called off.

The police found a new tactic to stop the idiots, who were mostly on bikes. The solution was to simply let their tyres down. Not a hint of trouble since...

Spurs V Everton is off.

I think saying there is zero chance is a bit optimistic

What happened here was a mere scratch on the surface compared to that London lot though...

I hope it's off, but I doubt it will be.
