All games will be off this weekend

Like so many on here 2 mins silence/applause would have been appropriate, the authorities that run Sport in the UK are past their sell buy date and embarrassing , it's no fault on whoever governs this country , it's the tophats who haven't got a clue about eg Booking tickets, travel arrangements , hotels all planned months in advance , I had been told around 2k pompey fans were due on Saturday ? I hope they get reimbursed for their efforts , I feel sure our late Queen would have preferred all sporting events to go ahead , some que jumping for a knighthood in the honours list ?? Hopefully not , God bless the Queen ♥ and good luck The King Charles the 3rd , hard act to follow , Best Wishes ,

I was thinking the same when they cancelled the hoss racing Roma , the old lass loved an afternoon at the races and I wouldn't imagine for one minute she'd have wanted to call it all off .

All of this protocol and what have you regarding a monarch passing is from another time , 70 years since we've had this and things have moved on .

Different times 70 years ago to the world today .

It's a harsh phrase and I try to never say it to be honest, but life does indeed go on and they could have handled this much better. 👎

Postponing sports events is just jumping on the band wagon by the spineless moth ball suits it's totally ott
2 mins silence and black armbands are sufficient to show respect

I wonder if everybody is going to say they want to go into work when they give everyone the day off for the funeral?
Surely seeing it on the 6 o’clock news should be enough.

It wouldn't be a problem for me personally Doggy , not bothered about a day off , in fact I'd sooner work .

The 6 o'clock news wouldn't be getting watched either .

Well you did ask .

Good for you but Im sure you’d be in the minority though

Maybe , the most complained about programme in UK television history was the coverage by the beeb of the death of the Duke Of Edinburgh .

So who knows Doggy .

There will be enough pomp and ceremony on the bbc this comming week to make any royalist have withdrawal symptoms

And of the 65 million population of the UK what percentage would that have been?

I don't know other than I read today that it was .

The article wasn't anti royalist by any means it just said they need to get the balance right based on what happened with the Duke Of Edinburgh .

Balance is important because not everyone is for the Royals in varying degrees .

I reckon if a referendum took place to decide whether to keep it you'd be looking at 60% to keep it and 40% not to give or take .

Just my opinion mind .
