Football itself may not stop for a bank holiday but I’m pretty sure administrative workers, legal people at the clubs, fa, efl etc wont be giving up their bank holiday to process the paperwork and register players when it can be done on the Tuesday 2nd in plenty of time for the following weekends games.

You can’t sign and register a player on the 1st and play him that day anyway
