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

[cleavers]

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

Is a plus.

 

[City Mike 1969]

It's off.

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

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My weekend plans in tatters because the UK is following an outdated tradition that makes us look like fucking North Korea.

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.

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

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…

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.

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.

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.
