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

[xmusampa]

Games are off this weekend.

So is my tv. Respects to her majesty and family but il be blowed if I’m watching programme after programme of all the hangers on and arse lickers coming out of the woodwork. News programmes yes but they even were prattling on about her on talk sport when they no nowt about her and had loads of sporting stuff sidelined to talk utter crap

The key part being nothing has been said about the St Leger on Saturday yet.

I'm assuming like the football an official announcement will be made tomorrow morning.

Better not cancel footy and let racing go ahead that would be taking the mick

I thought someone in the pub was winding me up before saying all sporting events were going to be cancelled this weekend!.... Only mourning I'll be doing is no football this weekend! Absolutely fucking ridiculous... Pretty sure I'll have to be in work on Monday though!

Another season, another cup final for Spurs playing against us

Even though City have given me far more joy than any of the royal family, even though they've mattered to me for as long as the Queen reigned, I believe it's the right thing to do, having no sport for a few days. It's a time for mourning not only the Queen but also the end of an era, albeit an era that had been coming to a close for some time. And for affectionately remembering a time and an England that I grew up in. We'll move on, me and family and City, because you try to live life in the present & future, but in many ways I will always enjoy the memory of a young Elizabeth II handing Bert Trautmann his Cup winner's medal more than the anticipation of City v Spurs on Saturday or whenever that happens.
R.I.P., Lizzie, and say hi to Bert again.

Surely can choose to miss the game if they would like to mourn?
We don’t have to shut the country down were not Thailand.
The last thing people need in my opinion is to be dragged into a load more depressing days, so let people choose what they want to do.

It won’t go ahead … the England captain plays for Spurs and too many English players in contention to play. Also my sold season card tickets for the game has just been reinstated. Game is off. Queen Elizabeth the Great. RIP x

Spurs being a 'big' club means City will pay you out when you list it, sale or no sale.

You'll not get the money for 45 days after the match mind you.

I don't like it either but the simple fact is her life was more important than others.

Not more important to me than my mam.

Like the commonwealth give a shit. They all want independence.

They have independence you pillock.

They have independence you pillock.

All over the TV in NZ too. Gutted if footy is postponed. I was looking forward to seeing Klopp get the chop
