Ol Liz then eh?

Quoted from aldi_01

96 year old dear dies. Sad for the family. No need for anything to stop. It will but it really doesn’t need to.

Could be the advent of change. It won’t be.

By my own standards I should be screaming non footy.
But as this a massive subject I’ll bite my tongue.

I absolutely respect you views although they aren’t mine. At least your post isn’t a gloat.

I think that it may well be the advent of change.
Charles isn’t exactly popular and has a very big act to follow.
Harry has massively damaged the Monarchy and had he remained onside  things may be different.  So it will be interesting to see how it pans out !!

If there’s no footy this weekend then just wait for Klopp, Conte etc moaning about their fixture chaos, they are already unhappy with the games to be played due to the World Cup.

One might argue that Harry tried to give the firm a wake up call but the wagons circled and stopped him.

There really isn’t a reason to stop the games though.

You have a point. I have removed that comment. And although I stand by the rest of the post, that part was unnecessary  and only prompted by hearsay rather than actual knowledge. And for that I apologise.

Although, it does seem a bit strange that a grown man, on hearing the news as we all have , goes straight to gloat on a football message board !!

I don’t know if I’m missing something here or what but unless part or all of the original comment has been removed, I can’t see any gloating in Ska’s post?

Thing is, I’ve said absolutely nothing - purposefully so - but you’ve still managed to blow a gasket. The idea that I’m interested in the death of a 96 year old woman, let alone enjoying it, couldn’t be much more wrong. I’m only interested to the extent that it impacts me and it looks like we’re about to have matches cancelled and be forced into a week (or two?) of forced grieving when even you have admitted to not really being too fussed.

Unfortunately you’re not allowed to be “not bothered” by the issue, even if you have to carry on performatively so. Social media’s already a sewer and the lynch mob are out to make an example of anyone not showing suitable signs of grief. I’m just glad I’ll be on a Balearic sun lounger in a couple of days & missing the carry-on.

Still, my PMs are open if you want to apologise or let me know what I’ve missed.

Dead. RIP.

Isn’t the funeral expected to be 9 days after her passing?

So Sat 17 Sep

Crewe and Colchester unlikely to go ahead and the midweek Gillingham match too?

EDIT: if the coronation of Charles falls on a weekend too, which I suspect it will, there could be further cancellations as there might not be enough emergency services available to supervise football matches.

Great servant to this country.

RIP

Bit of respect please guys and girls.

Football will rightly pause for a bit.
