Spurs (H) - Postponed due to the passing of the Queen (pg67)

[Luck95]

At least the sad acts will get even more time to sit and stare at the obsessive forced "mourning" coverage on the BBC.

 

[Dave.]

Potentially our next game could be v United in October ffs

 

[come-on-barney]

So let me get this right. Tomorrow is cancelled and next week due to respect, but we play the CL game. Sounds about right.

 

[domalino]

But of course we'll all be expected to carry on going in to work.

No leisure time for us plebs.

Just sit down and grieve your queen like a good little subject.

 

[Tugay One Cup]

Absolutely fucking pathetic.

 

[BlueMoonday]

Stupid decision, will cause a fixture pile up which we don't need on top of a winter World Cup. Whoever made or pushed for this decision is a fucking idiot.

 

[chesterbells]

A lot of it will be down to policing but come on , losing the head of state, head of the church and commander in chief is huge event and is history being made, football. doesnt matter

All what policing though? What are all the police needed for this weekend? Are they expecting 30 million outside Buck Pal? I genuinely can’t see why.

And as for commander in chief, I think the army will manage ;-)

 

[pride in battle]

Absolute joke I fucking hate this pathetic spineless country of boot lickers

Get a grip, fucking hell !!!

People's livelihood and source of income don't matter? Are you really that out of touch?

 

[waspish]

Next week looks be cancelled and with the World Cup free days for games ain’t there maybe premier will just say every team will get 1 point this week and next!

This is unprecedented times so a one of like this be right thing to do imo…

 

[cleavers]

Gives us a chance to get our injured defender's back

Is a plus.

 

[City Mike 1969]

It's off.

 

[Thenumber1blue]

The one of very few fuckin reasons I put up with work all fuckin week cancelled and possibly next week too

 

[mdj0520]

Right decision but sorry for the fans travelling etc

Is it fuck.

My weekend plans in tatters because the UK is following an outdated tradition that makes us look like fucking North Korea.

 

[bluefandk]

Madness absolute insanity, it is bad enough that Fifa has fucked football by having a world cup in november, now the royalist stupidity is fucking it up even moore. The fixtures congestion is going to be insane.

 

[kaz7]

Dont be a dick, the clubs will still pay staff , at least we will

 

[waspish]

Sounds like it's more due to concerns over policing levels.

Really don't think they can afford to scrap next week's though, so might have to adjust the times depending when the funeral is.

And why next week games be cancelled…

 

[ninjamonkey]

Not sure why so many are losing their shit about this. It's one, potentially 2 max, weekends of no football, its hardly a life changing decision.

I'm somebody who generally plans my entire weekends around going to the match, I wanted it to go ahead, was looking forward to this weekends match and I'm disappointed I now cannot go but it doesn't warrant going mental because of it.

Nobody is saying this means we all have to sit at home mourning watching BBC news all weekend, do whatever you want you just cannot see Premier league football this weekend.

From a purely footballing perspective, it's probably advantageous for us not to be playing this weekend anyway. Walker is a massive loss, potentially having him available to play to deal with the counter whenever the game does take place is huge whilst Spurs have a fully fit squad and won't be in a better state.

Maybe the police did, in fact quite likely, shame I was looking forward my first game of the season and I'll lose my hotel money. Not going to get worked up about it though.

 

[Tugay One Cup]

A world cup nobody wants, cancellations for no good reason and Mike Dean clinging to life.

What a load of fucking shite.
