According to the daily Express (sorry) but it was reported that football was cancelled this weekend as football supporters could not be trusted to respect the Queen....

Obviously there are a few supporters of certain clubs that this would apply to, so maybe a tiny grain of truth

Highly unlikely, you only have to look at the West Ham game on Thursday and the singing of the national anthem continuously and they are one of the worst bunch of supporters in the country. You find that a lot of hard-core football fans are very nationalistic.  There is more disrespect for the Queen on this thread than there would be for the majority of football matches

Premier League games were called off because fans 'couldn't be trusted' to respect Queen

PREMIER LEAGUE games scheduled for this weekend were controversially called off following the passing of Queen Elizabeth II.

also reported in the "Metro" paper as well

Its probably all a load of made up stuff and speculation added to all the rest of the speculation and guesswork that has been reported by the media over the last 48 hrs 😣

How were fans likely to cause disruption at lower league and kids football matches? Which were also cancelled.

I don't think a handful of parents watching Chipping Norton under-tens would likely cause much of a scene.

The footballing powers that be jumped the gun on cancellations, all other sports declared themselves BAU and I can guarantee you that the clubs/players are not happy about it and whoever made the decision is regretting it massively now.
