I agree, pretty confident of what the response would have been at Anfield based on past form but it’s their right, if anything it shows them up to a wider audience if it was adverse

Can't read The Athletic article, but certainly agree that it's out of touch with the NSC mood.
Good. Quite right too, and good for them. The football moratorium came far too far down the pyramid - grass roots football should not have been stopped.

Unpopular, sure, but misguided? Nah.

Five we pause, clap and applaud many more things I think the death of our head of state is a bit different and deserves marking differently

strong and stable with me, or...
Lots of cheering, drinking and enjoyable play as England take wickets at the Oval.
edit SA all out, great stuff. Special days play so far.
Thought that was pretty awful, TBH. Boy, that voice grated right through me!

The opera version isn't for everyone, I must admit. I think it's more hearing the words 'King'. It was noticeable no-one in the crowd sang until she had first used the new pronoun.

Careful - statements like that will get you fast-tracked to the naughty step.

The people making the decision aren’t the ones who have bought tickets, paid for transport, accommodation and planned their weekends at the match.
The people making the decision are however conscious of upsetting the Daily Mail editorial and thinking what is best in terms of getting an OBE or other gong in terms of impressing the establishment.
Why under 10’s could not play football matches yesterday and today is ludicrous.

It would be good for that to go ahead before Potter's had much time to work with the players.
With 6 hours of drone/helicopter footage of a moving convoy of vehicles to watch on the telly today, who needs football anyway?

Turned the atmosphere microphones off and no one would be the wiser. A 2 minutes silence could have been just that.
Besides, the anti scouse Brigade on here have whipped up the usual moral outrage through idle speculation about something that probably would not have happened.

Now instead of holding a 2 minute silence before games and giving the kids a chance to reflect on the loss of the Monarch the kids will be associating her death with a free day off and the generation robbed of their education through disruption worse than even during WW2 will loose another day at school.

The FA decision to stop kids/grassroots football was bizarre.
But the Premier League? It's run by 20 clubs, including ours. Why not ask Paul Barber? Not sure he could/would be completely honest but...
I'm certain they wanted to avoid negative headlines around the world. Would be damaging for English football and the Premier League brand.
They probably didn't want to lose/refund money either. Clubs would have been expected to pull advertising (as they did at The Oval).
Reputation and money are very high up the PL's list of priorities...
It's 2022. The age of social media. The backlash over a cover-up would be even bigger than the backlash over boos!

Can't decide if your schools are really good or really shit if missing one day of school means they're "robbed of their education".

I thought you were so immersed in your devotion to potters career that you may have heard it was disrupted by Covid.
But not as much as our Schools.
Now piss off to Chelsea.net
