Former Crystal Palace owner Simon Jordan believes the Premier League have made the right decision postponing the weekend’s matches after the passing of Queen Elizabeth II. The announcement came on Friday morning despite UK Government advice stating there was 'no obligation' for sporting events to be cancelled.
Leeds United were due to host Nottingham Forest at Elland Road on Monday night in front of the Sky cameras. However, the game will now be rescheduled for a later date and next Sunday’s trip to Manchester United may also be under threat.
Other sports, like cricket and rugby, will continue to be contested over the weekend, while the likes of Piers Morgan and Gary Neville have both questioned the decision to postpone matches. That said, Jordan believes that the correct decision has been made.
