I disagree - an injury can occur from turning quickly, running off too fast etc. No club will want to risk a player getting injured at this stage of the season in what will be (let's be honest here...) to most clubs, a fairly unimportant match. I'm not saying they wouldn't respect Speed's memory, but I can't see anyone considering it a priority.
