City's trip to Harrogate Town next Saturday (April 17) will now no longer get underway from 3.00pm, following confirmation of when HRH The Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh's funeral will take place. 

The decision has been made by the EFL to avoid any fixtures clashing with the time of the funeral. 

An EFL spokesperson said: “As a mark of respect, EFL matches scheduled for 3.00pm on Saturday April 17 will be moved to avoid a clash with the funeral of HRH The Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh.

“The EFL will now work with its clubs to determine at what time the matches will be played, giving consideration to the timing of the service. 

“An announcement will follow in due course.”   

The EFL will now work alongside clubs to discuss the implications and finalise rescheduled kick-off times - before any further announcements are made.
