Postponed fixtures

Yes they would be derby games and high risk. Spurs fans don't cause trouble everywhere they go and neither do Leicester fans.
Almost no sets of fans do, certainly at PL level. I just found your post slightly funny as it made out Spurs supporters were somehow better behaved than most other PL clubs when if you spoke to supporters that attend games, attending the old White Hart Lane wasn't always fun for away fans.
 
Ive seen pretty every away set of supporters in the league and the worst by a distance were Southampton. Outside of the PL it was Millwall but they were fighting eachother :cry: :cry: :cry:
 
Is this just coming down to stadium capacity? Like has been said I can't see Spurs vs Leicester being particularly feisty but there are 60k+ people. Brentford only have 17k so much easier to police whereas the home game vs PSV would be 60k+.
 
The last stats I saw had Leeds and United as the worst offenders. Although Liverpool topped the league for Scalping tickets, Alcohol offences and Pyrotechnics.

Interesting. So Liverpool have one of the lowest numbers of arrests and based on capacity of stadiums, it will actually be (give or take) the lowest. And I'm not sure if you're just continuing your desperation to criticise Liverpool or just don't understand stats but there is nothing in there that suggests Liverpool top the League in those categories. There isn't a full breakdown of those figures, they only provide the top 3 percentages of a particular clubs offences that relate to those categories. As Liverpool have so few arrests, a higher percentage of our arrests will result in a far lower actual number than a club with many more arrests :) For example, 29.5% of Liverpools 129 arrests were alcohol related, that gives you a total of 38 arrests. 28.2% of Leeds 305 arrests were alcohol related, that's 87 arrests. So although Liverpool's percentage was higher, the actual number of offences was less than half of Leeds' in that category.

The most interesting stat from there was the perceptions people have. Liverpool are perceived to have the 2nd most unruly supporters, when in actual fact they have had one of if not the best behaved set of supporters over that period. That would explain some of the stupid comments I read and hear.
 
Why is Man Utd game called off surely it only Police being used from London and surrounding areas for funeral?
You surely dont think that..

10k officers required each day with various skill sets. They are taking police from all over the country so numbers will be massively reduced.

Not sure why people keep saying Spurs and Leicester fans are nice as pie.
Both sets are known for trouble and outside of midlands clubs Spurs are Leicester's most hated team.
 
We all knew games would be canceled for the weekend of the funeral. As time gets closer, I expect more and more to be called off, ridiculous situation to be in and they should have just played the last game week as it would have been far more respectable to do so imo.
 
Let's hope we don't have a bad winter and games get called off. Only takes one or two fixtures and it could mess up things further.

Maybe the PL will have to start doing what rugby does and you still play even if there's an international break.
Just use the rest of the squad.
Be pretty interesting I reckon.
 
Maybe the week the pl season takes its break for the WC? 16th November roughly?
PSV have to agree though. All they have to do is refuse and they’ll probably end up getting a forfeit victory in probably their hardest game. Lucky them.

It comes down to PR as well though. Do they want to be seen refusing to reschedule because of the death of the Queen? The optics aren’t good.
 
It will be a Saturday - Tuesday - Thursday job. I know Spurs had a few weeks like that during the season before last.

It's the Europa League and Arsenal should have no issues qualifying so they can just put the u17s out anyway.

Apparently we’re trying to shift our home game on 19 oct against city till February and play PSV on that date.
Premier league are open to it, but it needs the agreement of City and PSV.
