All down to Cardiff City and/or Vincent Tan, Allan. It's plainly obvious to anyone!

Monday's International Champions Cup match between Manchester City and Manchester United has been called off because of the state of the pitch in Beijing.



A statement on the United website confirmed what would have been the first Manchester derby outside the UK had been postponed after heavy rain and storms in the build-up left the Bird's Nest playing surface in a poor state.

"Due to recent weather events, tournament organisers and participating clubs have made the decision to cancel the International Champions Cup fixture to be played in Beijing tonight, 25 July," said the statement.

To put you right on a few things Allan, Cardiff did actually play on a surface that was deemed unplayable hence the postponment mid-match. In China, there was a pitch inspection prior to the match taking place. We are talking about Premiership clubs after all

This match was not called off an hour before kick off either. They had been aware for a week of the possibility of the match not going ahead due to non stop heavy rain. The Man C groundsman had even spent several days at the ground prior to the match in an effort to assist with the pitch. The Manchester sides did not arrive at the ground to find it unplayable. Probably something to with real preperation and planning.

I blame brexit

I do as well Wez

And I reckon it's Allan's fault as he says we have awful

There you go Steve, thanks for the info. No idea why Allan found this as a reason for points scoring against what was obviously a complete farce in Germany.

No, it's not true that Man Utd or Man City will arrange games on unplayable pitches

The main difference between us and the game in China was that both Manchester sides had expressed concerns about the pitch several days begore the match. They had obviously done their homework, and knew that the playing surface was not up to standard following days of torrential rain. The match was officially called off 8 hours before the scheduled kick off. We appeared not to know that the pitch was unplayable until the team actually arrived to play the game. Seems a bit amateurish, but as someone has already said, maybe that's the difference between Premier League sides and our division.

Me, Steve & Keith I think it was did give the club a bit of stick for that friendly in Germany and rightly so, but, that's all forgotten about now. I have no idea why Allan has this vendetta against those who merely pointed out administrative flaws.

No I've never slated those that go and support our team, Allan no matter what the results etc are a fact

Our attendances are poor another fact and our club are very very concerned and as a loyal City fan so am I.

Why would Cardiff have known what the pitch was going to be like untill they got there?, surely these things are done on trust and if you arrange a game away to another proffesional club you would be expecting them to ensure the pitch was up to scratch?

Dont see how that incident was in anyway Cardiffs fault?

Would you change you're opinion if Cardiff arranged a friendly with a semi-pro team? Because that's what RW Ahen are.

No I dont think I would to be fair.

I don't think City to blame at all, the home team should know if the pitch is unplayable, the away side just turn up 2-3 hours before.

Home side completely at fault profesional or semi pro makes no difference.

Even if Cardiff had sent someone out there a few months back when they arranged the tour to scope the pitch out it could have been absolutely fine then and they would not have known it was unplayable till the day of the game.
