I woke up in the early morning and waited to watch the match, I was hoping Arsenal can beat Bolton and go up to the second place. I was waiting but I still did not see any sign of broadcasting the match, I thought I have remembered the schedule correctly. Later in the morning when I turned on the radio, then only I knew the match was postponed due to heavy snowfall. I think many people were waiting for this match, as it's going to assure Arsenal positions themselves in the second place. Did you purposely wake up in the early morning just to watch the match? Are you disappointed of the match postpone?

I'm from the UK, so the game would have been in the evening... I can understand why it was postponed: most of the country is covered in snow and ice, so I doubt many fans would have made it - let alone the playing conditions! I would have liked to see the game. I think it's a bummer for Arsenal, who remain a game behind... It's always better to have the points in the bag. I also wanted to see Bolton lose, after they poached the OC from Burnley!

Yeah, I have seen some matches and can see it was snowing badly. It's really hard for the players to perform well in such bad weather. I'm happy that Arsenal has won both matches against Bolton!

In a way I am happy. Arsene Wenger was complaining about the fixture congestion, so here he gets the break. Now he does not have any excuses. Also, this break would mean that Fabregas can be back in the team as it gives him an additional week to make the come back. The snow has been really heavy and has disrupted this season badly!! Cheers! Ram

Hello my friend kaka135 Ji, I am very sorry to disappoint you, but I am not that crazy at this age and in such a cold weather in my area. Finally, I can say that Man supposes and GOD Disposes. May God bless You and have a great time.

Even i was expecting arsenal to win the match against bolton to go to second place in the premierleague and try to catch chelsea. But it was sad that they could go to second. But its one way good as arsene can back for the see some injured players coming match and its always difficult to play in bad weather condition. So its all for good for arsenal. But the fans who got the tickets,especially away fans would have got disappointed. None the less it will surely happen. I hope todays match doesnt get cancelled.

I would have been happy if the game had been played as scheduled. However, I understand that the weather was so poor that the game had to be called off. I'm sure many Arsenal fans were disappointed. Anyway, what I really want is for Arsenal to defeat Bolton and move to the second place on the league table; one point behind the leaders, Chelsea, and one point ahead of Manchester United. I hope Arsenal wins the match whenever it is played and that Arsenal player go Reebok stadium (I think that's the home ground of Bolton Wanderers) in the reverse fixture to leave them "wondering" what has befallen them! So far so good for the young gunners. When the team lost at home to Chelsea by three nil many quickly wrote off the team. Moreover, with the injury of many key players like van Persie and Fabregas (and Theo Walcot, until recent) many supporters were not so sure. I feel we'll have something to cheer at the end of the season.

The terrible weather spoils the Gunner's plan and Arsenal have to face the music that they may play a rally of 7 matches in 25 days, including Aston Villa, Liverpool and Chelsea. Rather tough as i see. I just hope no more injuries in the team and hope Wenger to buy some players. The rumor says that Arsenal intend to bid C.Cole of Hammers.

I know my husband was mad! He is the head boys soccer coach here and wanted to watch that match. He didn't wake up early because we have DVR but he still wanted to watch it later when he had time!
