Is football cancelled for the next week? | Man United-Leeds & Chelsea-Liverpool postponed
- Thread starter PoTMS
- Start date
They recommended they be cancelled, there was only one outcome after that. Why did they recommend that?
Didn't they say the guidance is for them not to go ahead but the ultimate decision rests with the league.
Its not a rational thing and cannot be reasoned.
It's an emotional decision based on sympathy and respect.
Pathetic. What does calling them off achieve? Those who want to mourn can just not watch... Respect her by having a minute silence, black armbands etc.
What am I supposed to do now this weekend? Talk to people?

Any indication on what will happen with British clubs in Europe next week?
Hate this country and the flag waving, cap doffing idiots that inhabit it.
They will play.
You bet your life on it that if the international break was due to happen this weekend and next they'd find a way for all the England games to happen. International football is plot armour.
Make sure you use a £20 note to hoover it up your nose a mark of respect.
That should go ahead
Boourns. Boourns. Boourns.
I can't imagine European games being cancelled, even those played in the UK. UEFA will insist.
Irrelevant. Death of actual Head of State is far more significant.
It's got down to non-league now which was obvious anyway but has now been confirmed.
The Northern Premier League (I follow Belper Town and do the social media) has announced all matches off.

But aren’t gestures that achieve nothing exactly the right thing to honour a person who achieved nothing?
That's not democracy. Its politics. They deferred it so they wouldn't get the blame but the outcome would have always been the same.
Just play behind closed doors...
Ughh. I hate all this virtue signalling.
Will this be implemented in FM23 or what?
It's a fecking joke.
Go back to work, keep the shops and restaurants open, Strikers stop striking out of respect. Everybody doing their bit to keep the company going.
Parliament who have done feck all for 12 years but particularly the last 2 months - fecking off on another holiday.
.
And then the football too. Like seriously? What does cancelling that achieve.
Seems they can cancel our hobbies and pastimes but if it comes to cancelling work for the common man to "mourn" then the stance suddenly changes.
Joke

Our fans literally caused a game to be postponed the day of
They didn't postpone any games the last time in 1952
How about 2 weeks…?
In a year when the WC has been ridiculously shoehorned into the middle of the season because money.
I am British, and it’s ridiculous. If Policing is the issue, play the games behind closed doors with black armbands on.
All the shops are still open, everyone has to carry on going to work - if it means so much to them, why not close all the shops, even for ONE DAY…? Nah, can’t have that.
‘Mourn while you work and don’t do anything you enjoy , but DO CARRY ON WORKING SHOPPING AND DRINKING, PLEBS.’
It’s the double standards, which ironically, is quite fitting I suppose.

sorry but this makes no sense - government gave the OK for games to go ahead.
I can understand TV channels showing nothing but the news (even thought there isn't anything new to say), but dos this mean that had the government said "no", the FA would have gone ahead anyway? No, it would not. Stupid

Does it matter? As a foreign fan I’ve been through the process many times, your flights, hotels, tickets are all paid for months in advanced, usually 3-4 months in advance. Either the games are rescheduled 2 days or 2 months notice it doesn’t make a difference.
Cool, next.
Ah well ... Hopefully our only functional CF can continue his recuperation
Or... just people stating genuine opinions?
Can’t tell who is doing a Joe Lycett and who is being sincere.
Nice of her to give us some time to get Martial back
Honestly... I don't give a single shit.
Oh wow she handed world cup medals over lol!
It's a ridiculous decision. If you want to invoke a mourning period then cancel everything. But it seems like work isn't being cancelled. Strikers are returning to work too out of respect.
We just have a shit goverment fecking off on holiday again. And all our hobbies cancelled too.
But we're still expected to be in work and do our jobs. Get the feck.
It's a load of shite and just another distraction from the real problems facing the country.
Now we've got to listen to an anti monarch cow speak on behalf of the nation too. Its all so fecking fake.
What happens next weekend, do they cancel that as well? I can take one weekend but I find it extreme to have two weekends closed. Hopefully we can have next weekend on if they want to cancel this weekend as it's close to the death.
What better way to mark the Queen than pay respects at events this weekend then close for the day of the funeral whether that be Sat/Sun/Mon?
More chance of him still being injured after all this is finally over
Spineless but expected.
There won't be football on the day of the funeral so that means 2 rounds of fixtures getting fecked.

So what's the difference between playing and training? Are they allowed to train? If they are then they are still working like they do at a match so whats the difference? Too much potential for happiness at a match and not enough sadness? Is there a directive for training to be sad with breaks to mourn? Just wondering.....
