    I’m sure the players will be fine not watching a funeral

    Presumably they're closing the supermarkets, pubs etc at 3pm on Saturday too?
    And buses and trains.
    And hairdressers and nail bars.

    I am sure it will all be available on Play Back through BBC i-player, ITV hub etc, for several days, so they can watch different channels, should they wish to do so!

    Hardly the same.

    Hopefully City will give any of the lads who want to watch it the day off.

    If only the old boy could have held on a bit longer. I’m going to miss the first half now.

    I am sure the club could give special dispensation to those players and staff who would want to rush off after the game. Travel Independently, and it is about half an hour tops to Menston. Home for around 2.30. Plenty of time to have a nice pot of Darjeeling ready.

    This is a little bit like Brexit- Remain, Marmite love it or hate hit, 50-50% split - Royalty love-in or not. However what I think I do know about the old endearing Prince is that he had a dry sense of humour, a rather inept but amusing ability to drop embarrassing un-PC clangers, and probably would tell the oversentimental few to get over it, and the UK to carry on regardless on the day of his funeral.

    What kind of derby is it on Saturday?
    We've got M62, woollen, West Yorkshire and Pennine derbies but I'm struggling to think of a suitable thing that links the town and city?

    Respect Rod but this is nothing to do with individuals, after all many will be on the coach or in the car going home at the time of the funeral.
    This is about football as a sport/ industry pausing just as it is for Rugby, Racing and possibly Cricket and other industries. It's about Corporate bodies paying respect, what individuals do within those bodies is up to them.
