    Don’t think they need to change banknotes. Most have had Charlie on them for a while.

    They are shortly to become worthless if the new monarch isn’t on them. People are free to send any that are taking up space to me and I will dispose of them to save them the trouble. And for free!

    I only heard it on CNN. You deserve another prize for your honesty.

    something strange is happening…
    I’ve been watching a fair bit of the programs about the queen and find myself wanting to watch one of my favourite films I’ve not seen in a while…

    State of play as of 12 mins ago ....... Midweek English Football League fixtures are expected to go ahead, but the EFL is yet to issue a statement. The Premier League is also yet to make an announcement about the games to be played between 16 and 18 September.

    Meanwhile GNR, RU, RL, Golf, etc etc, even Horse Racing continue or at least know where they stand.

    Not good enough. Little to no respect for football fans

    As I've said before I don't envy the people trying to decide.
    Having said that I do think they get paid enough to make a decision...and make it quickly to minimise impact on people.
    Sad though it is that the Queen died, and personally I did genuinely feel sad, you can't say it was hugely unexpected.
    The London Bridge plans have been in place for years. So all Football Leagues have had years and years to decide ahead of time. It really should have kicked in as per plans, rather than what appears like day to day choices

    The delivery of Queen Elizabeths coffin to Westminster Hall was just magnificent... respect to all these involved, especially the 8 young pallbearers...

    I notice not much of a deal has been made out of that, and it’s been reported as ‘impeccably observed’ despite the referee having to cut it short after 25 seconds due to more than just a couple of absolute bellends.

    They really are a detestable club on so many levels.

    A little after noon today, they have had to temporarily suspend the queue ( just over 5.2 miles) as its at capacity with an up to 14 hour wait period to pay respects...

    Fair play to David Beckham (and any other famous people) who queued with the general public for 12 hours to pay their respects to the queen.

    I can’t get down to London to see the Queen, so I paused the TV, and walked slowly past it.

    I hope that you slowly walked towards your house for 12 hours before going in.
