It`s the right decision, I have no doubt at all about that. Safety first. Imagine if something had happened to a loyal fan on the way to the game? And of-course in this litigious day and age, if anyone had slipped and hurt themselves at Villa Park the club could have found itself having to pay damages.
As one friend said on twitter:
Stop flapping about the footie being on or off….people have been warned not to travel unless it`s absolutely necessary….your answer as to whether to go or not is there, stay safe and chillax, it`s a game of football folks❄️⚽️👍🏻

And whilst the majority seem to agree the decision is correct, there is some rather bizarre anger out there as well… oh and some laughs at the end of these tweets also!
Along with an angry reaction in 100% Villa!
Fukin pathetic

I fear for us Brits.
Believe it or not as grown ups we can make a CHOICE. If the game was on, it`s your CHOICE if you go or not. It`s not compulsory.

And a fan in Sweden points out to us how daft this country is when it snows. So true!
You should visit Sweden and see how we take care of snow! 😉😉 How much in Britain? 5 cm? We have 30-40 here! 🙂 UTV!
