sport will be cancelled for 9 days, and then the funeral on the 10th, so 3 games off more than likely
Our next game may be October 1 - which in a world cup season, crazy we will have got to end of september playing only 5 games including 1 at home
bollocks
The passing of the Queen would start a period of mourning across the United Kingdom, as detailed in a document called “Operation London Bridge”.
As part of that plan, which is set out for the nine days following the monarch’s death, sports fixtures would indeed be postponed, including all SPFL matches.
Will Scottish football fixtures be cancelled if the Queen dies? Effect on SPFL amid health concerns
Queen Elizabeth II remains under medical supervision at Balmoral amid concerns for her health.www.scotsman.com
So if all sport is cancelled, how does that give us another game in hand?
Your really not very bright are you!
This is absolutely ludicrous. If anyone wants to mourn, they are free to do so, but the completely predictable death of a 96 year old shouldn’t mean the country has to come to a standstill. We’re not in the 19th century anymore.
simple , have some respect, we live in a Monarchy, do nt like it fuck off. RIP Elizabeth , God save the King.
The actual London Bridge/Operation Unicorn plans don't actually definitely cancel sporting events. They deal with the logistics of getting her back to London and holding a state funeral.This is absolutely ludicrous.

It’d be ridiculous to call off games for the whole 10 days or whatever it is.

They may call events off out of respect but the government are not ordering anyone to do anything.
Yeah I can see Saturday being off but it would be very leftfield if they canned 10 days worth of games. Especially with the world cup taking out a chunk of the seasonThe EFL statement is slightly promising, and they will be desperate to limit the damage and cancel as few “rounds” as they can get away with. At least it is being discussed rather than the knee jerk reaction that could have happened.

Norwich v Burnley and Tranmere v Stockport tomorrow are off
A decision on the rest of the weekend games will be made tomorrow.
Gets Callum a bit nearer to fitness, oooh I love a conspiracy.It’d be ridiculous to call off games for the whole 10 days or whatever it is.
Trying to cram 3 games games in on top of the ones we're already having to rearrange due to the pitch issues is going to be a nightmare.Its only fair if 1 gameweek gets postponed, but we do not need a full 10 days or mourning. A weekend will do just fine.
Respects to the queen though
This country needs you!You know what won’t get postponed? My weekend shift at work. This country is pathetic
Good point, well made.Warwickshire Police are sending 100 officers down to London and as are other forces
I’d imagine policing will be a major issue and will play a big factor in any decision made
Will all hotels, restaurants, pubs, clubs, theatres, cinemas be closed?
Yeah, but think of all that extra revenue.......Trying to cram 3 games games in on top of the ones we're already having to rearrange due to the pitch issues is going to be a nightmare.
