Great news, we’ve ended up with a nice rest for the CL.
Well, this is until the runners find a way to get theirs postponed.So basically all games go ahead except
Brighton - palace (train strike)
United - Leeds
Chelsea - Liverpool
Ironic that train strikes are off as a mark of respect to the queenSo basically all games go ahead except

It's so they'll be on hand to arrest those dissidents shouting mean words about our beloved MonarchyCannot understand why they need so many Police to control Mourners for the Queen. I can understand on the day of the funeral but not throughout the week. These people are peaceful
Because you need hundreds of police to make that fixture go ahead without trouble - many are drafted in. But yes, if not being deployed to London, I assume they will be needed more locally.Why has Man United vs Leeds been cancelled? Dragging police from Lancashire to London for the funeral?
Those clubs won't be happy and I can't blame them. That's two matches they will need to fit in. Also, hasn't the train strike been cancelled? Surely Brighton vs Palace can now go ahead.
True, even if there was no police presence, I guarantee there wouldn’t be any impact to the queens safety.Cannot understand why they need so many Police to control Mourners for the Queen. I can understand on the day of the funeral but not throughout the week. These people are peaceful
If these hoards of morners are coming from all over the country, why don't they just bring their own Police Officers with them, then we can have our usual ones at the game?Cannot understand why they need so many Police to control Mourners for the Queen.

They should fucking forfeit it. Like we had to. Different circumstances, I know, but the bottom line is that we couldn't field a team and they can't either.Let's hope the inexplicable Goon euro game postponed causes big probs.
