    Charles has decided to have his coronation that day.
    I wonder if the fixtures will still go ahead.

    *King Charles

    I can't see them going ahead.

    I imagine they'll be moved to the Sunday.

    The coronation is scheduled for 1 hour only. Cannot see a reason to move the games

    This is the EFL you’re talking about. They thought the whole nation was wailing about the Queen, when most football fans were just gutted the games were off.

    Whether it's the Saturday or the Sunday, Burger King crowns are essential

    The EFL will decide you are interested for you.

    The Sheff Weds paper guy seemingly hints that there have already been discussions around moving the fixtures to Sunday. There are going to be some issues around that, as usually that weekend all 3 leagues have separate KO times, when all the final fixtures needs to start at the same time for their leagues. That reorganising isn't usually done for a few months from now (or made public at least), but local policing might have a nightmare on their hands in some areas if all the final games are moved to Sunday. Probably 12pm, 2pm & 4pm KOs that day if it happens.

    I’m surprised the Met Police haven’t made him move it due to existing commitments.

    Absolutely no chance that matches will go ahead on Coronation Day. They will expect street parties, beacon lighting, and the lark. The Met will be far too stretched and calling in thousands of officers from other forces so it just won't happen.

    Unless we get banning orders for seeing more defeats than victories at Valley Parade in the last few years we'll be there whatever day or time of kick off.

    I'd normally be cheesed off if it was postponed, but if it is played on Sunday 7th then is it really a big inconvenience?

    Only problem I can see is working with a hangover after celebrating our promotion, but other than that no issues with a Sunday game. :)

    The hangover will be just a routine last day one, as we will be champions by mid March

    Wolves away in 99 was a Sunday. There was zero chance of me going to work the next day. I’d have quit first
