Never insulted anyone. We all gonna die. That’s a fact. 96 years mean you lived a long life. You don’t mourn a 96 year old, you celebrate they lived a long life. Again what is so special that football has to be cancelled and everything else go on. Just close everything off if you want people to suffer. My thoughts are with all the football fans who travelled long distance to watch different PL. some from abroad
I'm sure the Nazis were unfailingly polite as they escorted the Jews, and the gypsies and the gays and the handicapped to the gas chambers. It is not an insult to wish death in people in your world. Enjoy it (pretty sure what goes round comes round) but you are not in my worlds. I reserve that for human beings, not fakes.

It’s funny when someone makes a comparison like this and thinks they have a good point. It’s even more funny to have that someone who is insisting on shutting down entertainment for 2 weeks to nationally mourn a country’s figure head compare the other guy to fascists….

It's even funnier when someone makes a comment either not knowing what they're talking about or, worse, distorting what the original poster has said. Don't you think?

Cricket, rugby and horse racing are all still going ahead. :lol:

What in the World are the FA trying to prove here ?

Apparently part of the reason is they don't trust fans not to act up if they have a minute's silence for her especially Liverpool fans .

Scotland Yard has signalled it will draw up an 11th-hour plan for Premier League cover if games cannot be moved away from the capital on the eve of Queen Elizabeth II's funeral.

A host of options to ease the burden on police next weekend are being discussed within football, including switching venues of the London-based fixtures.

However, only Tottenham, playing on Saturday, would appear to be in a position to play away rather than at home to Leicester without causing England's top tier a major headache.

Sunday fixtures are more complex. Chelsea, for example, entertain Liverpool while Everton host West Ham. There would be no possibility of moving the latter match to the London Stadium earlier in the weekend as West Ham have a Europa Conference League fixture on Thursday.

The other London fixture on Sunday is Brentford vs Arsenal so the Met Police would have to be involved wherever the match is played.

The Queen's funeral the following day is likely to see more people travel to London than at any moment in history – including world leaders and royals from across the globe – triggering an unprecedented police operation starting in the days preceding it.

For football, talks are likely to continue until Monday before the Premier League makes a final call on whether fixtures can take place as planned. Senior officers usually in charge of footballing policing are understood to have already been diverted to funeral cover.

However, while the Met Police wants football to take the lead in deciding whether to call off fixtures, the force has signalled it is can also get itself ready for the extra burden. One option, if the Premier League is unable to move games, will be for police to draw on help from neighbouring forces.

"Whether matches go ahead is a matter for the footballing authorities," Scotland Yard said. "If fixtures do take place the Met will work with the relevant partners and ensure that appropriate policing plans are in place."

After a weekend in which football stood almost alone in calling off fixtures on both Saturday and Sunday, all sport will be cancelled again on the Monday of the funeral. However, clubs are preparing for the likelihood that European fixtures will go ahead as planned this week.

Further cancellations for the Premier League would risk causing a fixture pile-up in an unprecedented season of congestion triggered by the first winter World Cup.

Apart from Brighton & Hove Albion’s match against Crystal Palace, which was postponed as a result of a now-cancelled rail strike, there is currently a full Premier League and EFL fixture programme next weekend.

Many of those matches would normally require policing and would not ordinarily be cleared to take place in the absence of sufficient officers.

There are three London clubs at home next weekend,

Sp**s v Leicester could switch.
I don't think Chelsea v Liverpool can switch because Everton are home the same day.
Brentford v Arsenal is obviously two London teams so a switch wouldn't work.

So looks like our next fixture will definitely be the NLD

Yes since that’s exactly what you did when you pretended @Rasmi wished death on the queen by saying her having a 96 year long-fulfilling life should be celebrated instead of mourned and then compared him to nazis out of nowhere. Which part of your post did I distort?

tbh you crying about stupid things. The queen was 96. Most of us won’t reach that age and if we do unlikely we will go out by natural causes having our nearest and dearest by our side. She got a good deal

Is there anything those tw*ts aren't to blame for?

Everything from Heysel onwards can be laid at their feet with unflinching certainty :lol:

The Queen was the ultimate Arsenal fan, she saw Sambi Lokonga play and decided to gave us the ultimate sacrifice, just for getting Arteta some time to recover Partey.
