nasty weather for Man City/CSKA Moscow match

ParlayininHTown · 10-23-13, 08:44 AM

My understanding is that the pitch will be in horrific shape. I have no idea about the weather forecast, though. Based on forecasts I saw yesterday, it is supposed to be a clear, cool (cold for us wimpy Murr-uh-kuns, cool for Russians) night.

good weather for some football...yeah it's gonna be chilly, but the pitch should be in fine shape
I do know one thing, from playing myself in this conditions, that we might see more injures because of the very firm almost frozen ground - it's not going to be a soft to fall down as usual that's for sure.

Thanks Rusher. That's what I get for listening to non-Russians about pitch condition.

I mean it's still gonna look like shit, but it's fine by Russian standards

We're not as picky about our turfs as them Brits

Barcelona would probably bitch about it.... But as long as real men can play on it then hopefully it's fine

I thought its was snowing heavily when I was reading about question pitch conditions.

So all indications by the SBR crew, the weather and pitch is just fine.

Thought about going under.

Bet10, not sure about the validity of this post, but I read this in another thread where posters are discussing this game.

The grounds crew at CSKA Moscow has been spraying the pitch with green paint this morning (or evening over there) to make it look better due to all of the sand. Haha wow.

the book.

Moscow has scored 0 goals in last 6 of 7 matches, Man City in good form, I believe Man City are going to try to come out fast and do damage early, especially if pitch conditions stories are true (I have read 2 stories and listened to interview with Pellegrini who is surprised match has not been postposed due to pitch conditions...so I'm thinking there is some truth to this news). Regardless, I believe Man City better team here, and I'm playing Man City -1/2 1H +125....this seems like a pretty decent value bet to me.

Bet10Heinekens · 10-23-13, 10:42 AM

going with the under 2.5

Neither team playing any Defense. Offense is clicking both sides. Special teams need to step up too

teaserpleaser · 10-23-13, 11:48 AM

yeah looked like my over .5 first half was doomed about 28 min in then explosion of goals

Bet10Heinekens · 10-23-13, 11:57 AM

Congrats on the over fellas

alamo · 10-23-13, 12:03 PM

I think it slows down 2h. I can see Man City putting some drives together and holding Time of possession to max and running clock down.

commentators are from U.k. I believe I lived in london for 3 months took the Tube public transport all over London didn't have a sniff of racism I think that's why.... Europe is supposed to be so far advanced over the states or at least most Europeans seem to give off that vibe but you don't see that nonsense going on at our major sporting events very rare and when It does happen it isn't allowed to just go on like this. Throwing Bananas and monkey chants shit like that shit is juvenile.
