Nope, she is the 1st Queen Elizabeth of great Britain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pasquale for King Posted September 8, 2022 Share Posted September 8, 2022 2 hours ago, FWJ said: It goes by the higher number of monarchs of England or Scotland. That’s why if Charles chooses James he would be James VIII or if he chose Alexander he would be Alexander IV. England has only had 2 Jameses and no Alexanders I know why she’s called that, the fact is Scotlands never had an Elizabeth I 👍🏽. Charles III apparently.

luckydug Posted September 8, 2022 Share Posted September 8, 2022 Sad when anyone dies. The BBC are well out of tune with the public with their blanket coverage of the queen's passing imo. No need to blank out all their Radio and TV channels. It feels like we are being forced into deference. This will turn people even more against the establishment and Royalty.

Malinga the Swinga Posted September 8, 2022 Share Posted September 8, 2022 Just back from Tynecastle and will leave football comments to other threads. To the two morons, one in Section E and one in F, hope you feel proud about shouting '**** the Queen' and dragging my club, my football club, into the gutter. Hopefully you can be identified by CCTV and banned from any future game. No excuses, no reasons and no second chance. Just **** off and never come back.

I mean how much do we shit on Celtic for doing it on remembrance weekend but suddenly some of our own are booing 1 minute rememberance of the queen It was 'feck the Queen' shouted out from G or H that started it as minutes silence was beginning. People shouted and booed back then God Save the Queen started from N and that was booed. Basically just one or two people shouting out that caused it. At least Hearts fans have booed during silence for both the Pope AND the Queen now. Edited September 8, 2022 by Mikey1874 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

State madated " grief" " the nation in mourning" etc when in reality most people will feel a bit sad and then wonder what they will have for their tea tonight.

I put Absolute Radio on in the car after the match and it was just instrumental version of sad songs. I imagine pretty much all of the main commercial radio and TV stations will be the same.

Who knows. Its covered on the terrace and tbh not sure its appropriate for this thread as this shouldnt be about either side and their idiotic behaviour at the game (both most def were as bad as each other but politics/religion etc have no place at football). It should be about a woman who devoted her life to the country and whatever your thoughts are that deserves respect even if like me you have no desire to have a monarchy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would think she possibly passed prior to the announcement but they wanted to get the family there and things in place before announcing it publicly.
