Stevenage home game

I know it's last game of the season but guessing it may be moved to the Sunday as the Coronation is on the 6th May

We could be King makers or King takers that day if Stevenage continue with their current form.

But no-one has died this time though?? I'd have thought it would just be a few London based games again thanks to policing resources.

It’s the last game of the season, everyone will need to play at the same time. Be very surprised if that doesn’t mean everyone plays on the Sunday

Can't see why we shouldn't play on the date of the coronation if it starts at 11 it'll be a couple of hours (12 on the BBC!), and who's really interested?

Not a chance in hell of any games being played on Coronation Day, as the EFL, Premiership and Championship would be accused of disrespect to the monarchy.

A coronation is quite an odd thing as it has no formal or legal significance at all. As we all now know the monarch's reign commences from the moment the preceding monarch dies, thus maintaining the legal continuity of the monarchy. Virtually all other monarchies in Europe have given up on this symbolic and hideously expensive ritual that involves the anointing of oils and presentation of regalia.

If Charles 3 is serious about saving money and doing away with riitual he should get Gok Wan and Ru Paul to do the ceremony and hire Burger King for the jolly afterwards. Having said all of that as long as I get a bank holiday I'm in. Stevenage can wait.

All about opinions on here, as we are told constantly by those that don't like being criticised. My opinion of that post is that it is puerile, obtuse and inappropriate.

Disrespecting the monarchy. Can't be having that now, can we? We'll all be expected to be glued to our TVs, otherwise the Mail on Sunday will send one of their hacks round wanting to know why not.
No bubblewrap unpopped.

Premier League and EFL all part of the establishment and old boys network which holds the country back.
Charles 3 is supposed to be Defender of the Faith which conflicts with his adultery with horsey woman.

I’m assuming on that basis Nige, you will be going into work on the allocated bank holiday.
