Leeds United are still waiting to hear whether next weekend’s clash against Manchester United will go ahead. The Whites have already seen Monday night’s game with Nottingham Forest postponed as a mark of respect following the passing of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.
The state funeral has been confirmed for Monday, September 19, but with policing and other issues to contend with, the fixture at Old Trafford on September 18 is well and truly up in the air at this stage.
As such, with an international break scheduled for the end of the month, Leeds may have to wait until October 2 to take to the field once more, with the visit of Aston Villa scheduled. Marsch will see any extended break as an opportunity to get some work down on the club’s Thorp Arch training field and rest up his star names.
