No one has died this time. It would suggest that wasn't the reason at all and simply a way of prioritising the Royal events over everything else. Regardless of what the people want. Anyone having a problem with this is simply being deliberately awkward. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is where you're going to find a lot of people will have a problem with it and I think quite the opposite. I think those who think its totally normal to just go along with rearrange everything because someone is getting a priceless gold and jewel encrusted crown placed on their head need their head examined. It's honestly batshit crazy. Edited October 12, 2022 by SJFCtheTeamForMe 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly, we'll be out on the streets in Airdrie, drinking, waving flags, singing...just like any other Saturday. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No problem. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because, not that I agree with it but I'm certainly not going to get my knickers in a twist about it, as I've already said, we have been given 7 months warning that 6th May is not a match day.

Youre right to say 7 months is sufficient notice but peoples problem with it probably goes beyond convenience. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as they don’t cancel the fixture card outright that’s fine Still bizarre but not something to fret over If they cancel the football because the authorities think we should be watching a 73 year old man get some silly jewels placed on his head instead then yes, I’ve got a problem with it 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kennie makevin Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 Let's be honest, watching a 73 year old man getting some silly jewels placed on his head may be a disgraceful method of appointing a head of state in a 21st Century democracy but it sounds much more gripping viewing than what passes for top flight football in this country. -2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charles Stiles Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 Ridiculous. He's already been proclaimed as king and will have been doing the job for 8 months. No need to disrupt the country again so that the London economy can get another boost. They'll probably be rounding up any one found wandering the streets when it's on and the TV detector vans searching out homes not tuned into the royal jolly. If you want to watch it, watch it. If you want to go the football, go to it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only issue with using Sunday is that the Champions League semi-finals are the following midweek which could be a problem for the Old Firm.
