It’s disgraceful. The fact you’ve used a “not” joke is bad enough. I’m not even gona bother with the rest of it… 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really hard arithmetic is it to work out. If the failed tests were conducted on the Wednesday, they come out of isolation at midnight on Friday. That being so, there will be zero preparation and the players will only have been able to do keepie uppies in their back gardens and have zoom calls. Doesn't bode well for winning your first league game against the league favourites. We could have trained for a month, without 3/4 more better players we were always struggling at Cove 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it not midnight Saturday they come out of isolation? I think you're missing the word "and" from the guidance below. (copied from the NHS website). Or am I miscounting? If you test positive, your self-isolation period includes the day your symptoms started (or the day you had the test, if you do not have symptoms) and the next 10 full days. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RC55 FFC Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 If the SPFL have any sense at all it will be postponed to a later date. So, see you all up there on Saturday. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigbrbairn Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 About time pro footballers did daily tests instead of self isolation. If all the players have two vaccinations surely that would be possible. It is in place in the NHS and food industry so surely a case could be made? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PedroMoutinho Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 You can’t imagine the game will go ahead if the isolation period doesn’t end until Saturday. I hope for our sake it doesn’t. -2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Caractacus Potts Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 What I don’t get is why did the whole team have to isolate? Been several instances of players/managers getting positive tests but only close contacts having to isolate and the majority of the squad ok to continue. Is it because of the relaxation of lockdown that these things have happened or have the protocols changed? Could be a farce of a season for all teams if they don’t change protocols for football. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mon_Eh_Bairns2018 Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 (edited) Andy nelson getting stick from Torquay fans and was pretty quick to like a tweet asking for him to return Didn’t realise that he preferred to go out clubbing rather than focusing on the football. Ik he’s missed a lot of games due to injury over the past years, but was decent when he actually “played” for us, so not sure if he’s the one. Obviously nothing behind liking a Twitter post and I really doubt he would, but what r folks thoughts on our strikibg dept atm?

Our striking department at the moment wouldn't even get a game for @latapythelegend's Sunday team. We need someone who plays like Andy Nelson just not Andy Nelson. He comes with too much baggage off the park and injury wise, little white bags according to Dundee fans. This late on we're most likely going to have to rely on a loan which is hard to take especially when as some have said on here you've got a director of football and the best he's came up with on that front was Jaime Wilson and John Robertson. We need a miracle out the blue signing. Has Farid not got any young Moroccan mates? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brokeville Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 I hope this was a joke? Otherwise you’re an idiot!Without information from the club how can fans be expected to buy tickets for a game and make arrangements to travel. If the games postponed then many may not be able to make the rearranged date. All we’re looking for is an update. Only the club has the information regarding the isolation dates. It’s not asking much. The clubs communication with the fans is not good enough. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure as soon as they get the full picture they'll let us know. It is the SPFL we're talking about so we'll get the decision on Friday once Dundee's votes came out the junk folder. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thing for me is I know there the argument that players don't want to be playing in league One. However i was thinking about this at the weekend and if anyone at the club has any sense they would be sweet talking potential players who have their doubts about dropping down, and using the many past examples where players who have done well for us have gone to bigger things. If I was a player, and assuming the wages were suitable, I would have no issue dropping down a league or two. If you are confident in your ability then you could be scoring for fun, making a name for yourself and getting interest (as well as the praise from the fans). I guess the negative side is if you fail and are found out to be pish, then yer days are numbered as a player....but I'd have thought there would be more players in the former camp. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
