I just read that the funeral would be 10 days from the day of death, which if it's today, that is a sunday. Would be good timing for them to rob us of a day off for it.
But if she holds out until tomorrow we get a long weekend next week!

It’s very sad to see, I don’t mind the Queen.
Charles on the other hand is a different matter altogether

F…..g Brilliant, it made me laugh out loud. I’m no royalist but the Queen is probably the only one I have any respect for.

They'd better not cancel sporting events and the like. I've got a short break booked in sunny Cardiff coming up. Pyongyang, dim diolch.

Agreed, although we obviously know a lot more about this particular 96 year old.

I'm in the exact same situation. And with another nipper due shortly, I doubt I'll be back over anytime soon.
People talking about praying for her. ****ing right I'll be, at least until 5pm Saturday anyway.

The biggest thing I know about her is that she heads up an institution I dont agree with
But I also see that she's a 96 year old, so respect to her but the wall to wall coverage is well underway and she's still alive.
Despite not agreeing with the whole setup I dont dislike her as a person (i think youd be hard pushed to find someone who actively dislikes her, rather than what she represents).
What's really insane, is that there's this frenzy for one 96 year old while other ones will die of cold this winter and not be found for days.

Re: The Queen.....will matches be postponed
She passed away last night (Wednesday).
They have to give the Royal family some time together to grieve, before the media release the news.

Wow. Can’t believe I was here to witness this historic news breaking. And on CCMB of all places.

Re: The Queen.....will matches be postponed
Our game will definitely be off, the opposition fans have to have time to learn the new national anthem

Just putting it out there for some dimwits who might be thinking she could possibly still be clinging on prior to the World Cup finals.

They banned comedy on TV years ago.

Jesus Christ. I’ve just heard that Witchell spouting absolute shite about how she loves us all. Time to start working my way through recordings of Bottom and Frankie Boyle tour of Scotland. That’ll keep me going until lights out.

He's been either speculating or disclosing private information all afternoon. According him the Queen has had cancer, had a recent fall and that Meghan hasn't gone to Balmoral because she wouldn't be welcome.

Is the queen dead?
Just been told that the BBC apparently posted a tweet offering their condolences and then abruptly retracted it. Anybody see that?
Might not be true mind!

Witchell’s inane rubbish is getting worse. There’s a time to broadcast and there’s a time to just shut up if there’s nothing more to say.

Agreed. His fawning is cringeworthy

Don't think so - why would they keep it a secret?

Waiting for Harry to arrive and get Meghan gagged before the announcement.

Re: The Queen.....will matches be postponed
I’ve seen a lot of jokes being made and I think it’s highly insensitive.
So many will be distraught by this loss, and even though it might not effect you personally, please do consider the feelings of those poor Brighton fans who have lost a top class gaffer. :popcorn:
