PL football will be back.

Don't ask me why the fuck they can hold games in London like Brentford-Arsenal and Spurs-Leicester but not matches in Manchester like United-Leeds, especially when the supposed policing shortage is London-based.

It may have to do with the rail strike? Palace and Brighton were supposed to be postponed even before the queen's death.

Man U / Leeds is a fixture that requires additional police presence based on the nature of the rivalry, apparently, which cannot be supported during everything else https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/manchester-united-leeds-postponed-breaking-24996649

Not sure about the specifics of the other two, but they are a rivalry match and a top 6 match so maybe similar issues because of those things?
