    I believe there'll be another one for the coronation of the artist formally known as Prince, unless they decide to do that on a weekend in which case, it could lead to further matches being postponed.
    Actually scrap that, I've just seen it won't be until next spring or summer now, so they will probably use one of the existing May Bank Holidays.

    But it is not that simple. The principle is that life for millions must stop has its ramifications. Many lower league clubs are struggling and rely heavily on Saturday fixtures. I am sure Mansfield are delighted that their rearranged fixture will attract 1000 less Bradford fans not to mention their suppliers, many of whom are family businesses and publicans. That is just one club. You keep mentioning respect but the fans would have shown this from every side of every ground in a show of togetherness. Also, all of us will show our respect in our own ways. I am sure that the funeral will attract the biggest viewing audiences of the year and not just in the UK. Virtually all of us are loyal and patriotic.

    seems to be differing opinion about when it will be. Some are saying it will be before Christmas

    But that’s the whole point…you don’t know, neither do any of us. You HOPE it’s just one fixture day isn’t certainty.

    So what happens if it is the day of a vital World Cup game, Champions League, Europa or Europa Conference match!

    The queens coronation was more than a year after her succession.

    I was at the Leadmill in Sheffield last night, not one reference whatsoever to the Queens passing....

    Again the government’s fault.

    They won’t support industries.

    It will be for same on the bank holiday. It will be open if you want too. Meaning some will have to work unless you have bank holidays off.

    No offence to you but I have no respects to pay. Until we start paying respect to everyone who dies each day it would be a fundamentally hypocritical gesture from myself. I appreciate others have different views. I just don't understand them.

    Don't bother park. Too many left wing views with no respect on here.

    Hands up those moaning about football being off for the death of our monarch were also moaning about getting a four day bank holiday for her 70th jubilee.

    Go on form an orderly queue.
