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

[Deleted member 77198]

A bit disappointing but I’m not too bothered. This season is already ruined by the World Cup, what’s another two weeks on top of the six that was taking up? For the last few years I’ve just been loookg forward to getting this season out of the way.

There are no Euros, Copa America, ACON next Summer so we’ll be fine to fit the season in.

And then with no more Covid disruptions, mid-season World Cups, no more disruptions from next season onwards and life [and football] really can get back to normal.

Wolves potentially off as well :( absolute joke of a decision imo

Where will we fit these games into an already ridiculous season?

They need to fuck the international break off.

Don't want to throw petrol on the fire but...Eufa have put Dublin on standby to host English European ties if they can't be staged in the UK

UnFuckinBelievable! A 96 year old lady passes & the UK must come to a standstill? Why? :-/

Why can't we all grieve in our own way & declare her funeral day a public holiday therefore allowing life to continue during this cost of living crisis?

My plans for tomorrow are completely fucked! I've got two Spurs cousins who just called to tell me. They took the day off work & were literally leaving for Manchester, staying at mine & we were all going to the match tomorrow (albeit they're in the away end).

So what's everyone expected to do all weekend? Sit & watch Nicholas Witchell's morose fuckin face for hours on end? Mountain Bike, Netflix & Disney+ here I come! :-|

Fuckin seriously pissed off!

Nicholas Wichell's face with a Huw Edwards voiceover would be perfect.

And everyone that is generally struggling to stay afloat right now that have now lost revenue/wages for a completely unnecessary cancellation (due to rescheduling, those people/businesses will likely not see the same revenue/wages when the matches are actually played; that’s ignoring the hardship of delayed income ahead of winter).

Ironically, it probably caused by the PL’s fear of making the wrong decision and playing it safe.

Hardly anyone will mourn 24/7 for the next 10 days.

There‘d have been more singing of the NA than any other time and would have promoted national pride.

Instead, we all stay at home and look at our feet.

They have tarnished her memory with this. They just cant wait to usher in the new king and put their foot down. FUCK EM

Have to agree - it went over the top with Diana and the exact same thing happening here. The vast majority will be pissed of to some extent by something getting cancelled over the next 2 weeks. Some people will be significantly impacted with money paid out on stuff they wont ever see again. Lots of small businesses will suffer.

Who has?

Makes very little sense your post.

I would have thought that the top royalists would have planned for something that could be positive for British society. They surely knew this would happen someday soon.

(or maybe those top royalists are out of touch with the common man for some strange reason?)

Thought horse racing was on..,

Looked at BBC sport it says all UK meetings off?

 

[Octavian]

Who mentioned the government? I’m blaming the PL who don’t give a toss about fans who’ve paid as they’ll still get the tv money

It’s a joke decision.

That’s fair enough. The way some replies are worded it’s as if Charles or the Government are deciding this.

That sounds absolutely practical and straightforward.
