Jacky1990 Posted September 9, 2022 Share Posted September 9, 2022 If nothing else, the level of seethe from all the unionist, royalist oddballs if the games up here go ahead would be beautiful. Get the games on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She played in defence for Scotland in the 70s. Nope, sorry, that was Gordon McQueen. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2426255 Posted September 9, 2022 Share Posted September 9, 2022 The international audience that follows the EPL will hopefully make it more difficult to postpone games and that could leave the SPL room to allow the fixtures to go ahead who will probably just copy what the English do. I still expect football this weekend to be postponed though unfortunately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get the games on. In fairness, it seems as though the general opinion seems to be swaying towards having the games go ahead (if twitter is anything to go by, I know, I know).

In reality that means nothing, her name is on a lot of things for just simply being the Queen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AngusTheBull Posted September 9, 2022 Share Posted September 9, 2022 It sounds like the English Premiership Rugby games this weekend are going ahead (though a game last night got cancelled). If an organisation as Tory/royalist as the English Premiership is playing games then there is absolutely no reason why we shouldn't be. Conversely the SRU has already cancelled all games this weekend (even junior games) so I'm fearing the SPFL will go down that route. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SJFCtheTeamForMe Posted September 9, 2022 Share Posted September 9, 2022 They'll not want to be seen to the only one not cancelling. The dithering on announcing the decision as well does suggest they're unsure though? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The SRU are more Tory than their English counterparts. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
