theesel1994 Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 Season's over folks. This SG lockdown isn't going to end at the end of January. SFA decision to suspend football to can't see them resuming when SG lockdown continues. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's possible the players may ultimately take the decision out of the hands of the HFL board. A large number don't want to continue. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmontheloknow Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 (edited) Nicola Sturgeon was asked directly in the briefing about Dalbeattie Star's part-timers playing on reluctantly last week. I wonder if she was aware how far Jason Leitch and Co had agreed to the 'professional' definition being applied down the pyramid. Leitch was as he outlined it in the same briefing, but can imagine she might have not been aware it went so low down. Her view is just one of many I am sure but can't imagine that would have thrilled her, had she known.

not man of the match Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 You think the government would starve the population to control Covid? Because I think that might be counter-productive. FWIW, those immature eejits on your bus are why the UK has one of the worst records in the world on Covid. We're a nation of spoilt children. I’m not asking for them to starve anyone, I just want to see a little more enforcement on those doing as they please 7 days a week.I see the shopworkers union speaking out following the Greenock deaths - about time too. Not football related but I did the conversation in that direction last night so feel it’s worthy of acknowledgement. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GordonS Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 I don't understand the rush to write off the season. It's like when someone goes one up in the 85th minute, commentators love to claim it's a winner. It's only the second week in January, if rates come down like they did in the Spring then we'll be in a position to play football again by March. None of us have a crystal ball and there's nothing to gain from cancelling the season, so let's see how things go. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The season doesn’t need to be cancelled, it can be extended because by the look of things these tiers below the premier and championship are running at the same pace so they can be played into the summer surely? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

None of us have a crystal ball and there's nothing to gain from cancelling the season, so let's see how things go. It will get to the end of January - then they'll likely extend it to the end of February. Then the players will need another three weeks training. Running out of weeks to finish the season off. Or would it be simpler to write this season off and start again with all the clubs back? Back at the start of the season the decision was made with the hope of fans being allowed back in after a few weeks. There is absolutely no chance of that happening this season. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least Morrisons have seen the light and are now banning anyone from entering their shops who refuse to wear face masks, hopefully the rest of the big supermarkets follow suit. All we need now is to sort out McDonalds KFC and Starbucks drive throughs in the retail parks. The ones near me are like Hampden streets when Scotland are at home. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You wonder if there’s any regrets there 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
