Opinions are irrelevant. Respect is earned and deserved.

In your opinion. If you read the OP's post he asks for opinions. Maybe you should steer clear of posts that asks for people's thoughts as it might shock you to hear people have differing viewpoints to yourself. I'm not going to steer this topic into a back and forth debate with you so I won't be saying anymore to you about it. So have your last twopence.

| All football is off by the looks of it, so I expect RL will follow suit. Not sure where this'll leave the comp in terms of potential GF reschedule, or they'll just play the first playoff games mid-week

| Quote ="BBC"The English Football League has also postponed its two games on Friday.
A decision on weekend Premier League and EFL fixtures will be made after a review of the official mourning guidance, plus consultation with other sports and the Department for Culture Media and Sport.
It is also scheduled to be the opening weekend of the Women's Super League and the Premiership Rugby season, while the Great North Run is due to take place on Sunday.
The Irish FA has announced that all football in Northern Ireland scheduled for this weekend will not take place.
The government's national mourning guidance states cancelling or postponing sports fixtures is not obligatory and "at the discretion of individual organisations", including on the day of the state funeral.
On the day of the funeral, the guidance suggests events could be rescheduled so that they do not clash with the timings of the service and that organisers could hold a period of silence or play the National Anthem at events, with players wearing black armbands.'"
With the GF date fixed, and the World Cup to follow, unlike football the RL hasn't got too much wriggle room.

| I feel as though many sporting organizations were waiting to see what others did.
With the Premier League calling off games, I expect everyone else to do so.
Whether you agree or not, the scenes over the next few days will show the regard the Queen was held in by the wider British public. If RL continues when all others don't, it'd be a terrible look for the sport.

| The game at Catalan will be difficult to move and may well go ahead as it's in France. The Huddersfield v Salford game could be moved to Sunday, as the St Leger race day is at Doncaster.

I agree that it would be a "terrible look" for the sport and when I first read karetaker's OP I thought it was a fair question.
No matter what your 'persuasion', as 100% Wire says we (the game) are on a tight schedule ahead of the World Cup and whilst I wouldn't anticipate the nation to be in full mourning 'for ever', there is it seems a Royal protocol that will be observed and the timings of these State Events will dictate the mood and inform who can do what when

I did ask (politely) to refrain from this kind of posting as it's irrelevant to the topic and RL.
If you want to give everyone your opinion and great insight on the Monarchy and the State of the Nation take it to The Sin Bin

| I'm hoping the games go ahead due to the tight schedule. I'm sure the RL players & fans can show their feelings prior to the game. I had great respect for the Queen but don't think the sporting world and other activities should have to stop for any length of time. Rugby Union & Soccer have less of a problem to re-jig postponed games. Cricket has similar problems to RL.

| I suppose there really is some wriggle room if necessary . Nothing would be lost by running the World Cup & GF playoffs & final in tandem for the length of time any disruption would last. The eventual WC winner will no doubt be from the southern hemisphere anyway.
On the Royal front ,despite what anyone thinks about the Monarchy , the Queen has done an excellent job in her 70 year reign being a valuable ambassador for & bringing prestige to the UK. RIP Your Majesty.
It would good if our politicians off all sides now took a lesson from the Queen & started to work together for the good of the country instead of themselves.

Why, how do you think it looks now
And if you are only accepting pro monarchy comments on the thread then you should tag the thread title as such so that posters will be aware of it.

'"
Where have I said I was only accepting pro monarchy comments? I think you may have over reached here if you are trying to register that I'm trying to skew debate or fathom out whether I'm a monarchist or not, and btw whether you or anyone else is or not really isn't a problem as far as I'm concerned.. .
What I found unsatisfactory with some earlier posts, was that they seemed to be going off topic, the proposition is how will the RUGBY LEAGUE season be affected by events and as above it really isn't a pro or anti monarchy issue.
If you or AN Other want the season to carry as normal fine, I don't mind at all, it's about opinions BUT what I find hard to countenance is turning the thread into a social debate whether that's "there's always one" comment or (paraphrasing) how can the Royals be supported in a country with such inequality?
You will note that no posts have been deleted and my original prompt for 'restraint' wasn't targeted at any one or any view but thanks for your advice.

| Genuine question, but what does cancelling sporting and other leisure events achieve during this time, apart from force people to be miserable by having their one release from a mundane work life taken from them?
Now, if people were off work during this time, then I could understand it a lot more, but asking people to continue their everyday grind, while removing their small pleasures in life, just smacks of state imposed sanctions and reeks badly of social elitism.

Where did I say you said it?
Actions speak louder than words, and it was your actions that led me to my conclusion.
Regarding your overreach assertion please be assured I don’t care who you are, where you go, what you did as long as you love me
The point is you chose to select a post with negative monarchy sentiment and advised the poster to take their monarchy opinions and world views off to the sin bin, whilst at the same time ignoring several posts spinning positive monarchy sentiment and not telling those posters to clear off to the sin bin with their monarchy opinions and world views
It’s about balance.
And yes, the post that violates the AUP, containing the uncalled for personal attack on a poster giving an honest comment has not been removed
And my advice is as FOC to your good self as it is to the Forum Owner, fair is fair

| Superblue if you or anyone else has a problem the moderation on here and specifically mine on this topic please feel free to contact the "site owner".
The post that I selected and suggested should be "taken" to the Sin Bin as opposed to "clear off" (which I think is provocative), did not mention Rugby League or the time pressure that might have been in place on the sport should say the funeral clash with a semi final nothing more nothing less.
I'll leave it there with you as I don't understand much of what you are trying to say and look forward discussing it further with the "site owner" should you feel the need

Haven't various sports made their own decisions on whether to postpone or not? Can't see any state imposed sanctions.

Uncle Rico, there you go again, where did I say I would report you to the site owner?, and are you sure you should be directing posters with complaints to the “site owner”, or have you just made that up to
And I’m quite familiar with the complaint procedures thank you, so don’t require your blessing regards such instances
And I do feel you are being a tad disingenuous when you say you merely “suggested” a poster took their mildly anti monarchy post to the sin bin, your tone was unnecessary with a very clear “take it” comment
Your actions tell the story, maybe a hint of a guilty conscience?
