At golf at Wentworth. 18th Green Hospitality and me one of my Irish heroes, Pat Jennings.

Following weekend potentially at risk now due to stewards being needed in London...

I think next weekends games will be fine. Just this weekends that are postponed. I've got Sunderland down for Reading next Weds night and then Watford on Saturday and having spoken to them just now, they're carrying on like they're on and see no reason why they'll be called off. Still not...

Yeah, but what do you really think about it mate?

National mourning is from now until the evening off the funeral - I guess 23:59 on probably Monday 19th Sept. The royal houses and their staff have a further 7 days of mourning after that.

Think it's a governing body decision - ie, the EPL and EFL as it looks like they were given the option of staging fixtures: The PA news agency understands that sports were advised by the Government in a meeting on Friday morning that events can take place this weekend provided they are staged...

All EFL/EPL games cancelled this weekend.

Hoping sport remains on (business aside) as I've got hospitality at Wentworth tomorrow for the BMW PGA Golf.

Apparently the EFL sent some guidance to clubs at 9.30am. EPL meeting with DCMS started 10 mins ago. Announcements expected lunchtime, potentially as early as midday.

Must be something about Sundays - I guess it being a 'holy' day. I think if the 10th day fell on a Sunday (depends if you count yesterday or today as Day 1), then the funeral would revert to Monday.

Football update - The Vice-Chairman of one of the L2 clubs i work with messaged me tonight to say that the EFL are meeting the government tomorrow but he's expecting all this weekends across EPL, EFL and FAWSL to be postponed.

Thats what I'm saying, it's all unknown. The EFL teams this afternoon (before she passed) thought they'd be on apart from her funeral day. This evening the FAWSL thinks they'll be off this weekend. Hence saying I'm sure it'll be confirmed by the morning

I guess I'm not a royalist (although I don't really know what that means...) but I'm genuinely sad and upset. I've never met her but she's been around for my 42 years. Just seems weird but gutted she's gone. On the football note and on the back of my earlier post, the FAWSL team I work with...

Sorry for your loss. I lost my grandfather last week. He was a fair age but still a shock.

Football wise, there's been no official comms from the EFL (as she's not passed away) but I've spoken to a few of the clubs we work with today, including Cov. The general feeling is that the only games that would get postponed would be on the 10th day after her death which would be her burial...

Can't really argue with any of that TBF.

Can't believe they've sacked him. Madness.

People have just said he's a Utd fan and I said he seems interested in Cov a lot considering he's not a fan. Hardly banging on about it FFS...

No ones really banging on about it...
