If Charles has any sense he will let events go ahead as a celebration of her long life rather then mourning the death of an elderly lady who did her duty to the end, she can’t have felt great on Tuesday but she carried on anyway

It seems like Charles or whoever made this decision got it wrong sadly.

it was the premier league clubs that voted on it, can't blame anyone else

The decision was given to the premier league with guidance that the anthem be played and a minutes silence along with black armbands, the PL bottled it hard to blame them as some fans would not have respected the silence

i agree with Mock for a bit


this weekend yes maybe nice to postpone for the first 7 days of mourning, but we also need to do it like how she lived, always carrying on with her work no matter what until the end


7 days of mourning, and then next 2 weeks after lots of tributes to the UK and Commonwealth's favourite mother



i also hope Charles will continue with the christmas speech tradition, if he's smart he'll do that, considering that was also something what made the queen be very loved by the public

[bots]

they are still showing the weekend fixture list on the bbc website with no indication of any postponement

[MTVN]

I think they were meeting at 9am this morning so we should know soon

[Cherie]

Are the words from the Palace relevant, we are entering into a period of Royal mourning rather than national mourning

[bots]

they are saying that they are waiting on the direction from the palace and canvassing the views of the involved groups

[Nicky91]

not a footballer, but i reckon Man United would want to not play this weekend, especially legends within their club would them not to, such as Sir Bobby Charlton, Sir Alex Ferguson


i reckon most england team players then and now would want this weekends matchround to be postponed

[bots]

if a footballer doesn't feel he can play he can exclude himself from selection. Personal choice rather that authoritarian edict

[bots]

Official: the premier league has cancelled this weekends games

[MTVN]

How annoying

[Crimson Dynamo]

Northern Irish FA have postponed all games this weekend.

hopefully Scottish one follows suit

[Crimson Dynamo]

With all due respect niahm, your comment was about foreigners not caring about the death of the longest reigning monarch of the uk..not about football being cancelled.

The vast majority do though, show some bloody respect to them. Seems to me it's the ones who dont care that are making the most noise.

Very disrespectful to the people mourning.

Respect is a 2-way street.People aren't asking for respect, they're demanding compliance.

Demanding like a naughty child wanting their way.

I think that most Brits don't want forced mourning sessions.
