COVID-19 In Scottish Football 2020/2021

[craigkillie 12,885]

Football should be shut down then restart in the spring and through summer. We are not out of the first month of winter things are only going to get worse.  Wont happen of course too much money involved with tv contracts.  

There's a lot more than TV contracts stopping that. Who is going to pay all the contracted players and staff until the spring? Are the SPFL going to ask UEFA to postpone the Euros in June and ask for a special exemption to allow our teams into next season's European competitions after they've started?

Only if the outcome is "Hearts are relegated".

Motherwell player now isolating with Covid, will Maurice Ross still be demanding 3 nil scorelines?

The difference is Motherwell have one positive test and one player out rather than the entire squad.

Let’s wait and see what Ann Budge says so that we can rule out those options.

SPFL seek the power to lead.

Certain clubs spent the Summer saying all they wanted was some leadership from the SPFL, so they should have no issue with this.

They asked for this in July and were rejected by the club's. 

Apparently the club's have had a change of heart through.

There's an astonishing number of people who aren't getting that Kilmarnock have been accused of breaching COVID protocols who are screaming that other clubs should be punished too.

Somehow they aren't understanding that other clubs have not broken, or have suspected to have breached, COVID protocols, and seem to think this is some sort of massively unfair witch hunt against Kilmarnock and are demanding that St Mirren and others who have players out with the virus be punished.

It's a very simple situation but a multitude of absolute thickos can't seem to understand it.

Correct.

At least 8GTG will now have something to be happy about:

The SPFL has shown zero leadership and willingness to even try.

Total shitshow. Zero planning and leadership from the SPFL.

Aye it's surprising how many people think you can only catch covid if you break the covid rules/laws.

I thought that both Aberdeen and Celtic had already been fined, part of it was suspended.

I will not make up my mind on this until the facts are on the table. Up till now the SPFL have put out a half baked statement. Killie will rightly fight this all the way. Do you really think a players goes out to catch C19. Or are you saying Killie did not want to play the game. What's your answer ? 

[resk 1,270]

Who thinks that?

Team X announces positive covid tests affecting their staff.

Social media bampots - "Sfa are you investigating this? They must have broken protocols."

Not seen anything like that?

He is right.

It's quite simple, the SPFL have investigated and opened up disciplinary proceedings. It's not a conviction, it's a charge. Killie have every right to fight it all the way. 

Your last two questions are totally irrelevant and not what he said.

Neither of those things. Without knowing the details, it seems like Kilmarnock have failed to follow a protocol, or at least have been changed with that.
