Scottish football fans were clearly missing their fix over the weekend as the national game paused in respect to the late Queen. But not everyone agreed with the move and they are hoping to get back to business this weekend.
Not long after the calls, their wish was granted by Scottish football bosses. William Hutchison, Aberdeen, said: “I'm glad there's a full football card this week and weekend. We all need a break from what's been happening and to postpone the football again would have been ludicrous. I am sure every club will have a minute's silence."
Alan McPherson, Cullen Moray, said: “It was a terrible decision to postpone football because of the death of the Queen. I could go to the cinema, theatre or a restaurant so why not football? A minute’s silence would have been quite sufficient and give fans a chance to express their condolences. Many fans have spent money planning attending games at a time when money is tight and they will have to do it again when the games are played on a cold night in November."
