"I know it’s only a game and some things are much bigger but imagine all our games went ahead this weekend. "Black armbands, silences observed, national anthem, Royal band playing etc to the millions around the world watching ? Isn’t that a better send off?" https://twitter.com/petercrouch/status/1568215801341116416?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1568215801341116416%7Ctwgr%5E06c97f6f6d7ab7df892abec6a07b167140415faa%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fd-42654944952409557063.ampproject.net%2F2208242209000%2Fframe.htmlFormer Manchester United defender Gary Neville echoed this opinion on social media, in his response to a tweet sent out by Piers Morgan. The TV presenter tweeted that: "Sporting events should go ahead. "a) The Queen loved sport and b) It would be great to see/hear huge crowds singing the National Anthem in tribute to Her Majesty, as West Ham fans did so magnificently last night." https://twitter.com/GNev2/status/1568178846846828544?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1568178846846828544%7Ctwgr%5E5097343e80922acb6be2ee14d3eb20d362536cbf%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fd-42654944952409557063.ampproject.net%2F2208242209000%2Fframe.html Neville retweeted this and underlined his agreement with both Piers and Crouch.
"I agree Piers. Sport can demonstrate better than most the respect the Queen deserves."Regardless, the games are officially off, and with the state funeral still to take place, there is a chance that they might be off again next weekend as well.
