Its unclear if it's a request from the club or if it's no test, no entry? I'll stick with the webcast. Cant be arsed faffing about. If it was no test no entry I'm sure that would have been stated. The guidance from the SG is to take an LFT before meeting people so it's probably in line with that. Can't see them turning anyone away. Tests can be faked anyway so makes it pointless asking for proof regardless. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any chance that a Goalkeeping Proficiency Test can be introduced too ? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hahaha . I would be asking exactly the same if we still had Gourlay between the sticks. Those two are in a league of their own! Dabrowski to Ramsbottom is a fair difference. Former I thought was outstanding and should be playing every week at a top level, pains me to see him sitting on the bench every week for Hibs.

The Moonster Posted December 25, 2021 Share Posted December 25, 2021 Asking folk to take an LFT to sit outside is fucking bonkers. Nobody knows whit they're doing any more. Asking folk to do things for the sake of it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you test positive you shouldn't be leaving your house never mind going to the football. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Moonster Posted December 25, 2021 Share Posted December 25, 2021 When you consider our former groundsman had his balls dragged across hot coals for talking about the pitch in public, some of the stuff from "Big Eric" has been lucky to escape criticism/disciplinary so far. 4 minutes ago, spiders4ever said: If you test positive you shouldn't be leaving your house never mind going to the football.

The fact that you think you have no symptoms ignores the fact that people can be positive without showing any symptoms and can be spreading this by mixing with the community. It may behove you to think about others and do your bit to help protect fellow human beings. -3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I isolate when I need to and I'll take a test if there's reason to. "Leaving the house" isn't a reason to test yourself and "stansing outside" certainly isn't either, so with respect, go and take a f**k to yourself. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
O'Kelly Isley III Posted December 26, 2021 Share Posted December 26, 2021 Never mind vaccines and tests, I think it's time everyone on this thread took a chill pill. Enough snarling and sermonising, it isn't helpful. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do tell. The Covid vaccine primarily is to protect you from more serious illness should you be unfortunate enough contract it. You can carry and spread the virus even if you have been vaccinated. Seems to me that education could help you. First action could be to get a third injection. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Without wanting to wade in here, I got the vaccine because the big marketing campaign at the time was that it would protect you "and those around you." My grandparents are both CEV, so I got it for them. The first dose made me ill, the second dose made me as ill as I've been in my adult life. I could barely leave bed for a week after it. I'm not fussed in the slightest about catching Covid myself. Since the start of the pandemic 14 people in my age group and below have died for any reason within 28 days of a positive test. Getting in my car and driving is probably a bigger risk to me than Covid. To have a go at someone for getting it to protect others, when that was what we were told was the case, isn't really a good look.

cameron2000 Posted December 26, 2021 Share Posted December 26, 2021 Yeah it doesn’t really really take a long discussion… a test takes 20 mins from set up to complete. Given how insanely high transmission is right now it would be very selfish not to take a test. -4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not eligible to take a booster just now but I probably will when the time comes because ultimately the better I can fight off an illness the less risk it is to people around me. I've taken every step I can to protect my family through this and kept my distance from others wherever possible, just because I don't think taking a test which has invariable accuracy before standing outside in a 2,000 capacity stand with 300 people in it is helping much doesn't make me selfish. Your first action could be to sit doon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
