The Isle of Man Football Association has postponed all grassroots football matches this weekend, as a mark of respect after the passing of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.

All fixtures due to take place on the Island this weekend will not go ahead.

Officials say Her Majesty the Queen was a long standing Patron of The Football Association and has left a lasting and indelible legacy on the game.

The Premier League and the EFL have confirmed that their fixtures this weekend will be rescheduled for a later date.
