CANARYKING 644 Posted September 10, 2022 Rumoured to be Monday 19th, what about the games scheduled for the Sat and Sun ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Branston Pickle 3,679 Posted September 10, 2022 …those games are on the 17th and 18th so should be unaffected. In fact there’s no games scheduled for the 19th. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KiwiScot 1,459 Posted September 10, 2022 Unless they postpone for more respect then policing requirements are the only thing to throw a spanner in the works. I see them going ahead, but could also see Sunday games moved to Saturday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pete 320 Posted September 10, 2022 Having to arrange another round of fixtures gives the EPL/EFL a major headache. With ther World Cup on the horizon they will be reluctant to cancel matches next weekend. They will feel they have given enough reverence, don't see why cops can't attend Saturday. Sunday might ne problematic however. Hoping for the best i.e. Saturday goes ahead already had hoprs dashed when train strike wac announced for 17th but is now cancelled.

canarycop 208 Posted September 11, 2022 I am a Funeral Director and have two funeral services that day. I will be heartbroken for the families concerned should these be cancelled. I doubt they will be though. I think it's already been said somewhere that all sporting events should pause whilst the funeral is happening. That being the case the weekend shouldn't be a problem Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Already got people like Biden saying they are going, you can imagine how insane its going to be with almost every head of state, prime minister and president on Earth (and for those who can't make it some kind of high ranking representative no doubt) all heading to London at the same time on the same day.. Don't envy the police thats for sure Edited September 11, 2022 by cambridgeshire canary 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wcorkcanary 4,337 Posted September 11, 2022 Anyone who is a welder will have busy few days welding down every manhole cover within a mile of any member of any head of state. Does anyone know the rationale behind this action? Has there ever been a case of sewer launched attack? Or is it one of those things someone thought of and no one had the guts to say it was a stupid idea....just in case. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ken Hairy 3,779 Posted September 11, 2022 No games next weekend makes much more sense because of the policing issues mentioned. It makes cancelling them this weekend even more ludicrous and farcical. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
