I don’t see why European football fixtures would be cancelled
Queen Elizabeth II has passed away - keep posts civil and respectful

Well if she's sadly passed, then it's already God Save The King.

It doesn't look good.
Isn't there some kind of plan that gets mentioned every so often of what happens when the Monarch dies? I think there is going to be a period of mourning.
The Queen is like the nations Grandmother. She's stood above the Monarch system. It won't be the same without her. It'll be a different world. A break from the past.

Is there a chance she's already gone?

I'm afraid it's possible
London Bridge, or something.

Possibly she's old and frail

Operation London Bridge if she’s in England but Operation Unicorn if she’s in Scotland or so I’ve read. She’ll be sorted out with Scottish pageantry and procedures before moving to London.
Very much so. Political leaders around the world (Commonwealth) are all informed, strict media blackout until the Palace release the news. You'll see all BBC channels announce it simultaneously, so just stick BBC One on.

I think so. There is protocol to follow now, but you only have to look at certain people to know something has already happened.
Just last night I said to my girlfriend, that I got the feeling she might not be with us much longer. More frequent stories about her being in discomfort etc.
I am no monarchist, but I do have a huge amount of respect for her and her dedication. I will be sad indeed to see her go

Dsmmt
Cant see why any fixtures should be cancelled tbh European or otherwise - but thats just me I guess.
Sad yes but shes 96 and by no means is everyone a Royalist or going to be in deep mourning that they cant find the energy to attend a football match but no doubt we all have to pretend for the next few weeks.

The official line is still 'under medical supervision.' Wonder how much longer that will last.

Well they're saying she is resting and comfortable on the news.
Be strange for BBC to take these actions today if she is still here by the end of it.
