The inevitable happened an hour ago and the Blackburn game was called off due to very tricky conditions up in Lancashire.

So a few minutes later James Collins updated his twitter feed with the following

Game off….and stuck in the fucking hotel in Preston of all places!!

Nice one James, made me smile

Of course we play at Wigan on Saturday the last thing we need is for that to be cancelled. The replay date for the semi is likely to be Thursday 14th January, but that may change if the Manchester derby is called off tomorrow.

EDIT 13:50 – Manchester Derby now called off, to be played on the 19th and 27th, presume our game is still next Thursday
