leftback in the changing room Posted September 9, 2022 Share Posted September 9, 2022 Seeing genuine anger about this on Twitter from people who don't usually get angry about these things. I could understand if next weekend's games get called off as policing concentrates on assembling for the funeral, but cancelling weekend sports activities AFTER you've sent people in to a day of work seems utterly bemusing.

That's the thing, like state funeral next Saturday? Totally get it, absolutely fine, but to cancel this weekends? Why? It doesn't make sense and if anything denies those who would tribute to her, from actually doing so, like I'd hate it but I'd imagine most grounds would have been like West Ham last night. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It won't be the 20th (at least I hope not) as that's when a lot of disability benefits like PIP and DLA get paid and if its a bank holiday (and Tuesdays usually are never bank holidays for this very reason) then vulnerable people already struggling with both disability and the cost of living crisis may go without a months payment.

RTHerringbone Posted September 9, 2022 Share Posted September 9, 2022 Here's what my local parkrun is doing tomorrow. And that's enough. Perfectly proportionate and respectful decision: Quote As a sign of respect at the passing of our Queen we will be holding a 1 minute silence before the run tomorrow. We also invite you all to wear black for the run if you can / wish to do so. The wider sporting decisions made seem way overblown. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Adam Posted September 9, 2022 Share Posted September 9, 2022 I don't think Boris was having a dig at the BBC at all, more painting a picture of his emotion over it all. Say what you like about Boris (and I cannot stand him) - but that speech he just gave was incredible. It brought me to tears for the first time throughout this. 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

anagain Posted September 9, 2022 Share Posted September 9, 2022 Maybe my humour is way out there but it sort of amuses me to think that it's sad that Liz can't see that people kinda liked her. If the flowers and all at Buck Palace are anything to go by, and the words from random people...and the fact they cancelled all the bloody sport as a mark of respect. I think she's be a bit annoyed that there was no footy at the weekend...bet she was a Chelsea fan. Maybe some of you believe she's up there lookimng down on us. Possibly saying, can't you put a bloody film on instead of all this talk about me, and ain't Boris a buffon. Not too soon to have a bit of a laugh about it, is it?
