OK, lakini naona hukusoma paragraph mbili za mwisho alizocomment mwandishi, utaona kwamba sio kweli kwamba club ndio inafanya decision....just very simple interpretation of the PL rules....angalia hapo:

Under Premier League rule E13, a match can be postponed or abandoned only if it clashes with a Champions League, Europa League or FA Cup fixture; by 'order of the police or any other authority exercising its statutory powers', with the approval or on the instruction of the referee or with the 'prior written consent' of the Premier League board.
The home club cannot make the decision. The Premier League was satisfied the match should be postponed, but United were happy to travel. They planned to take the 2.34pm train from Manchester Piccadilly on Saturday. But at 12.50pm, manager Sir Alex Ferguson learned the game was off.
