I assume it’s because the only way to get to Falmer is by train or car, like that’s an excuse.
So, if we were playing in Manchester, on the day of a rail strike, the Premier League would postpone the game? Would they fuck!
Of course they wouldn’t that’s why I find it really odd.
Didn’t they hold an FA Cup Final during rail strikes, as well as the Community Shield?
Lallana pitching to be the next Liverpool manager.
I think it’s basically impossible to rearrange European games before the World Cup.
It also looks like two of our PL games will have to be rearranged. First the Wolves game on Saturday and the Chelsea game is Sunday next week which will be the day of her funeral.
Impossible to rearrange before the World Cup.
Imagine the Queen saving our season. Should never boo the national anthem again.
Cancel the World Cup then. Win win for everyone.
Because he does as he’s told.
The last thing Queen Elizabeth did, it may have unwittingly saved the pride of Liverpool city!
Just really hope the women’s boxing isn’t off, been waiting a long time for that 1.
Very odd situation as you have Golf at Wentworth which can’t go to Monday and Cricket which I assume which SA can’t really extend more than a day I reckon.
I assume they may cancel the football out of respect but with the Proms going on Saturday you’d probably think that boxing is at risk.
No disrespect to the passing of the queen but canceling all those events (especially those at the weekend) is so out of date and the chaos (rearrange all of the events) it will create - sorry - it’s just not worth it.
Go ahead with the events. God save the queen (doubt anyone would boo it at the weekend). Minute of silence + the applause after.
I very much hope they don’t.
Queens funeral and us playing at Stamford bridge next week on Sunday - isn’t that also a conflict?
As expected. They may as well come out and announce postponement of next week as well…save everyone a week of getting up in arms over it.
January 17/18th is the next midweek with no games so far.
Would be madness to cancel next weeks games too.
