Premier League clubs 'fear more postponements' due to police issues after Queen's death

Premier League clubs are expecting more fixtures to be postponed next weekend due to the Queen's funeral.

Queen Elizabeth II sadly passed away on Thursday, aged 96. She died peacefully at her Balmoral estate to end her 70-year reign. Many in football have paid tribute to the Queen, with no games taking place in the UK on Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Monday out of respect.

That decision has proved controversial, as thousands of fans have expressed their disappointment. Many wanted to attend this weekend's fixtures to collectively pay tribute to the Queen. These tributes are now set to take place during the midweek games or at a later date.
