The match looks set to go ahead after the club drafted in extra help in the effort to clear the snow and ice from both inside and outside of the ground.

You could argue that the fact the game is going ahead could be beneficial to Newcastle as there is simply no better time to face Chelsea. Currently they are missing some of their most influential players through injury and suspension, although on the flip side of that it must be recognised that this is Chelsea and they should have the squad to cope. After all, football is a squad game, and they are the reigning champions…
