But it has been really throwing it down as torrential rain and thunderstorms swept across the north west of England, leaving Manchester looking more like Venice. https://twitter.com/VenueManchester/status/775753143418322944 The September weather conditions were so bad that it has kiboshed Manchester City's Champions League opener against Borussia Monchengladbach. https://twitter.com/ThePLZone/status/775766107181477893 Just 20 minutes before the game was due to kick off and officials called it off due to a waterlogged pitch...and you can't blame them... https://twitter.com/ManCity/status/775751877040476160 https://twitter.com/Philipdocherty/status/775769040723771393 While the rain didn't deter the German fans who made the trip to Manchester from stripping off and enjoying the weather, there was no other option other than to call the game off. https://twitter.com/TheFootballRep/status/775765730117689344 Then came the downpour of weather-related jokes at City's expense... https://twitter.com/RamsdenMike/status/775768564255092736 https://twitter.com/BetVictor/status/775765344195575808 https://twitter.com/KevBeesley/status/775767483957571584 https://twitter.com/_LucasMichael_/status/775768474635337728 https://twitter.com/ComeOnPulse/status/775767868638199808 https://twitter.com/liquids25/status/775766746431102976 https://twitter.com/ScreenRyder/status/775766375092584449 https://twitter.com/TheRealSweegy/status/775766257668853760 https://twitter.com/YTerminalo/status/775767195989184513 https://twitter.com/AdrianWhitehur1/status/775767170299068417 https://twitter.com/AgentOfAnarchy9/status/775766858213433344 Some people obviously couldn't resist an Emptihad gag... https://twitter.com/jerry3089/status/775766999225999360 https://twitter.com/HazardFlicks/status/775768489999171585 https://twitter.com/glory_hunters/status/775768066915442688 https://twitter.com/DeadlyFabregas/status/775766252639756288 The GAA Hour took their show on the road to Castlebar to preview the All-Ireland final with Colm Parkinson, James Horan and some very special guests.
