4 Reasons Why EPL Was Postponed Due To The Queen's Death by Djpaparazy(op): 9:05pm On Sep 09, 2022

Premier League Statements confirming further postponements beyond this weekend's action are yet to be announced, but it is anticipated that next weekend's Premier League fixtures will also be called off.

With the United Kingdom entering a mourning period and the funeral expected to take place next weekend, it is likely that further postponements will occur in the Premier League and other competitions.

It also means the WSL could have to wait another week to kick off their 2022/23 campaign, while the EFL could also face further postponements to deal with.

The decision has caused a division of opinions on social media as to whether this was the right thing to do as some, such as Gary Neville, believe that sports crowds would have given The Queen the respect she deserves.

The reasons for the decision have since been revealed by the Daily Telegraph’s, Ben Rumsby, who states that there were four primary points to matches being postponed. These are:

1. Elizabeth II was a patron of the FA (she isn’t of most other sports).

2. Her grandson is president of the FA.

3. Football is the national sport.

4. Initial tributes had already been paid at matches.

Prince Charles is already 73 as of when he is made king..

And do you know that The Title Kate Will Get When William the son of Prince Charles Is King?

In other words, Kate will be called “queen,” but the addition of “consort” makes it clear she has no constitutional power and is a queen in title only.

Don't get it all wrong, just a queen in title..
