Sport teams are not exempt for quarantining when returning from a red list country so unless they change Turkey to green or amber before the Match it’ll have to be 2 legs at a neutral venue.

Or wee Nicky does the right thing and allows an exemption.

Its really great stuff to look forward to a tie, then realise you're having to deal with clownshoe operations like the Scottish Government and UEFA, just to find out your two legged tie against Galatasaray is about to become a one legged affair in Asia.

^^^ see this right here, that's your typical RandomGimp post, all supposition and drama.

If it’s going to be neutral venues I’d definitely take a one off the rather than having Saints trekking across the continent twice in two weeks. Costs less and probably a far better chance of pulling off a shock in a one off tie.

I'm genuinely fucking seething we're likely to miss out on that game tbh. Turkey has far, far, less Covid cases than either England or Spain, but there's zero fucking issue in Celtic and Rangers playing sides from both in friendlies in front of 10k+ fans. 

There is no logical reason to prevent Galatasaray coming into the country, in their own wee bubble getting tested daily for the 2-3 days they'll be here, yet you've got councillor's from Perth last night saying there's virtually 0 chance of it happening as the government won't budge. We have two foreign countries playing games against each other in Scotland last month 😂 

There's no logical reason to prevent us playing them in Turkey then returning and postponing our first game domestically back and having to "isolate" for 10 days or something. But you know fine well we'll get no help in that from the SFA either.

The past year has been fucking brutal as a Saints fan, so to have yet another moment taken away from you for absolutely no reason is just shit.

Wouldn’t we be playing the conference or UEFA Playoff within that 10 day spell?

Suppose we'd be forced to forfeit that if we travelled to Turkey, since we wouldn't be allowed out of isolation for 10 days?

Absolutely mad.

Absolutely fucking brutal.

Yeah, I mean as in actually being there. You're absolutely at it if you're saying experiencing us winning the double the way we did is in any way comparable to how it would've been to actually be at the games.

Undoubtedly the greatest season any of us will ever witness as Saints fans, and not one of us saw a single game in the flesh.
