General counsel and board director Patrick Stewart, who has been with the club for over 17 years, will be become interim CEO. Patrick Stewart's appointment as interim CEO would allow United's new joint owners to identify the right long-term candidate to run the club, Sky News reported, citing one source. Manchester United did not immediately respond to a Reuters' request for comment on the rationale. Arnold will provide "transitional support" until the end of December, the club said, and they will start looking for a permanent CEO, United said in a statement.

Some kept their heads bowed, others wiped away tears as Britain said goodbye to its longest serving monarch, who died on Sept. 8 aged 96. Gurminder Kaur got up early to drive from Essex in southeast England to Windsor, where the queen will be buried later on Monday. “The (London) queue had a festival atmosphere, and you just had the adrenaline keeping you going," Kaur said.
In 1952, when Queen Elizabeth II took the throne after the death of her father, same-sex sexual relations were criminalized in Britain. That support has led some to argue that she was a “quiet” supporter of LGBTQ rights, but to others she was just doing her job.

Queen Elizabeth II gave both of the measures her royal assent and went on to continue to approve pro-LGBTQ policies.
