Thankfully the queen had the kindness to die at half time so Arsenal’s Europa league game on BT Sport hasn’t been interrupted.

I can't be doing with it. If they cancel the weekends games I'll be livid. Can they not just cancel oval office sports like polo and show jumping and leave us with our brief glimpses of happiness

No. Be sad for the death of the Queen, and be grateful that the energy cap is now only £2500.

Brighton's following match has also been cancelled so we wouldn't have a game for a month. Not the worst thing in the world considering.

Put her ashes in the referee whistles and every time they blow for a foul it's like a little peep of remembrance.
