Manchester derby postponed

Manchester City's Carling Cup semi-final with Manchester United tomorrow has been postponed due to heavy snow.

Although the first-leg tie was not due to be played at Eastlands until tomorrow evening, there was no prospect of the game taking place due to the weather conditions in Manchester overnight and officials have called the game off.

The tie will now take place on 19 January, which was originally the date for the second leg. That match will now take place on Wednesday, 27 January.
