So they wouldn’t have been allowed to attend. What a lot of pish, theres no saying how many could’ve attended a Darvel game without showing symptoms last week 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FairWeatherFan Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 You'd like to think with this news they'll try and put together a WoS Premier in some form. Then reshuffle the Conferences into something more local to at the very least minimise travel costs. I know that won't be the easiest thing to do with the potential spread of the clubs, but it would be better than nothing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LongTimeLurker Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 ...the real problem would be the in for a pint part but the SG in their infinite wisdom opened up the significantly higher risk part of the equation and kept the significantly lower risk one closed off. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Innocent bystander Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 An absolute cock up. Clubs with a proud history chucking the towel in for the season. Whole situation has been crying out for leadership. Faith been put in a self nominated management group that gave been a sham from the off. There’ll now be a pile of relevant questions that they are incapable of answering/dealing with. SFA been no better. A series of shite bag tweets posted at 5pm just as they clock off for the night. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should have taking a leaf out Highland League leadership which has been exemplary. A few may ask if a few have bullied or railroaded the committee into a season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct, again fans almost demanding that a restart has to be like the old days - can't anyone last a couple of hours without ? ? Managed to see a Western League game again, Portishead 1 Lebeq 1 att 75+ with no masks, drinks coming from the clubhouse, no real distancing required with a small crowd. Took your name and number on way in, hand sanitizer on entry. Looks like more chaos in Scotland, if fans can't get back in by December at latest, is it worth playing the games ? Ever hopeful. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the string of infections stopped when people tested possible for the virus there wouldn't be a problem. Individuals are infectious before they display symptoms (if they ever do) and before they are tested. That's the point Ceejayar is trying to make. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only social contact was the game. Now 6 players from the team have covid. My wife and daughter now have it too. Luckily I have tested negative and can look after my elderly mother in law who lives with us. Is it worth it ? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
not man of the match Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 Football with no fans, promotion or relegation? No thanks! Glorified friendlies for a season when there is not a chance of the season being completed. We will see how many teams last the season. I find it staggering that 70% of clubs said they wouldn’t last 4 weeks without fans but only 14 had the balls to pull out Well if nobody pulled out we wouldn’t have that! Nobody wants to play without fans but nobody wants to sit it out for 15 months either. Give it a go and see where it ends up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

not man of the match Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 Bankruptcy? How do you plan to pay your players? IOUs?I’m led to believe that our players want to play and will take what they get until such time as when they can get what they are due. I think it’s strange that the West seem to be holding back while the other regions are happy to get going. Each to their own. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody would have had to pull out if the vote had been for the sensible delay-until-it's-safe option. The turkeys have voted for Christmas, or play-until-you're-bankrupt as it's now known. Also, the WoSFL insurance covers players for loss of wages if they are off their regular work due to injury. It doesn't cover them if it's because they catch COVID. That'll go down well. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clash city rocker Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 Players playing for nothing... interesting...perhaps clubs have been giving these guys too much cash all along...if they really just want a game of fitba. Personally believe if a player has a contract for certain cash he should be paid , clubs should not play if they can't guarantee his money. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
