    Live from the Westminster Abbey Stadium

    6th May 2023

    Kick off 11am

    Officials; Archbishop of Canterbury. God, (who is all seeing) will be in the VAR studio somewhere near the M25.

    Live coverage starts from 7.30am, BBC 1, BBC 2, Sky News, ITV, Channel 5 etc, etc. Except Channel 4*
    *    Channel 4 will be showing an alternative coronation day special about the execution of King Charles 1.

    Subjects in the home end are invited to join in and show their support to the tune of Seven Nation Army (except in Scotland, obviously.).
    “I swear that I will pay true allegiance to your majesty, and to your heirs and successors according to law. So help me God”

    As excitement mounts, the countdown to kick off has begun. IOAG has compiled an exclusive, all you need to know guide for the big match, including the build up to this showpiece event.

    Prince Harry is expected to be in the squad after passing a late fitness test. His striking partner Markle is not selected after publicly criticising the management.

    Updates will be added as the event unfolds.

    PS Any chance of a sticky, Chilco?

    Not everyone will want to read this thread - sorry but it must be labelled as off topic.

    Not everyone will have to. It's written as if it were a football match (on topic), you know as in a joke.

    Jesus, you guys running this board look for any reason to discourage alternative views. I'll do a match day thread on the Battle of Naseby if you like, see if you're any happier with that.

    Where am I doing that? I've marked it as off topic because well........it is off topic. If we didn't have an actual match on Monday with an actual match thread I may have turned a blind eye.

    It's unnecessary pedantry. Being a matchday thread was part of the joke, but if it makes you happy..........

    Oh cool, is it 'have an unnecessary pop at Tom' day again? We've not had one of those for at least a week!

    Glad you got the punctuation correct in the PS, I don't know what a sticky Chilco might be good for.

    Looks like the Roundheads are rallying the troops.

    I don't know about the other occasions but maybe if it's happened more than once, having a "pop at Tom" is necessary.

    What line up are we expecting for this? Is Andrew going to play the under 16's?

    The (re)Markle one we have up front is out unfortunately so won’t be causing any trouble.
