It happens in the SPFL too. Camelon did try to move the game - it was supposed to be at Dunpiace tonight - but funnily enough it was still frosty there. But might not have been when the tie was first postponed. All the other ties have progressed. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sorry, I don't mean is it allowed under normal circumstances, I mean is it allowed under the covid restrictions? Would have thought outdoor would have been very much preferred. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So no, can’t be done legally. Edit- done a little more digging, professional exceptions can be granted for boxing etc at any level, however these seem quite specific and need an agreement from Scot gov. I highly doubt they’d allow a riskier activity just to avoid a few days or even weeks delay to an event. Given the hoops already needing jumped through I highly doubt anyone at the SFA is thinking ‘ we really need this cup tie to go ahead, let’s go put ourselves under additional strain and discuss with Scot gov over what additional steps we can put in place to allow games to go ahead indoor.

The Scottish rugby team have trained at Oriam and I think the Scotland football team probably have too. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
