English Football League Is Set To Resume (See Details)

The EFL programme is set to recommence on Tuesday September 13 following The Queen’s death.

The funeral of Queen Elizabeth II will take place at 11am on Monday 19 September at Westminster Abbey. When and how EFL football recommences depends on resources around this date.

The National League has confirmed matches will go ahead as scheduled from Monday, with a one-minute silence to be observed at all matches before the funeral and players to wear black armbands.

Resourcing issues, particularly in respect of policing, are associated with some fixtures that will need to be discussed and resolved on a fixture-by-fixture basis over the period ahead.

Consideration to individual fixture circumstances will be made on a case-by-case basis, in line with usual protocols.
