'Something seismic' - Ex-Leeds United man offers verdict on Premier League controversy
and live on Freeview channel 276
Leeds United should have been playing Nottingham Forest at Elland Road on Monday and it's a tricky one as to whether or not the Premier League should have called off this weekend's games following Her Majesty The Queen's passing.Given the age of The Queen and the length of time that she has reigned, what is deemed culturally acceptable now is quite obviously different.I think generationally there will be a certain demographic that thinks it's absolutely right that the country should come to a standstill and there should be that period of mourning.But I think perhaps a younger element disagrees with that and I can absolutely see that.
Let's put it right, it's very sad that a woman as iconic as The Queen who has been in everyone's lives for as long as we can all remember and who has been a great source of comfort to millions, not just in this country, but around the world, has passed away.
