Arsenal have welcomed suspension of matches. The Premier League fixtures have been postponed this weekend to honor Queen Elizabeth II following her death, as reported by ESPN.
This means Manchester United trip to Selhurst Park will be on hold. While Manchester United fans are disappointed, Arsenal are happy with fixture postponement. Meaning the Gunners will retain their top spot in the league table.
The London based club was set to go head-to-head with Everton, until the unforseen event occurred.
Here are some of the fans who took their views on social media:
