Watching Blackburn v Chelsea on the weekend I thought it was as close at it's come to a Premier League abandonment for quite some time.
With that in mind I thought I'd stick up a reminder of the abandonment rule if anyone is interested...
In short, when a game is abandoned it is treated the same way as a postponement.
This means, in effect, the game never happened, and any goals scored/clean sheets accumulated do NOT count. It also means, however, that if any manager has players from the abandoned match in their starting line-up or amongst their subs this weekend, they CAN be replaced at any time throughout the weekend, providing that their replacement's team has not kicked off yet.
