It’s a name I struggle to spell for some reason. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would depend on whether your game v Celtic is postponed because of you, or them. If its them, then I dont see why not. Issue would be finding someone to play. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dons_1988 Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 We might technically be able to in terms of the rules but I suspect we'll play it on the safe side with the SG and only play our scheduled league games, unless they give us permission. Might be worth doing another intra-squad friendly with what we have, but not sure how valuable they are. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given all that’s gone on, I would be amazed if, a) we would have the nerve to ask someone to play a friendly, and b) anyone would want to help us in our quest to get out of the play off place. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McInnes, Doc, Robson and Sheerin would need to be on stand by to play. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodhull Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 So what's the punishment for the players announced today everyone's expecting? Not going to affect Celtic much if they're already punting Bolingoli out on loan but if we get all 8 players suspended for some games then we're obviously back in the position we were in before the St. Johnstone game was postponed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have no problem if all of the players, the six fit players anyway, were given a 3 match suspension. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't surprise me if its a 3 match ban. With 2 of them suspended as a warning to them and everyone else. Meaning they will have to sit out the St Johnstone game that they would of missed originally, which would right that 'wrong' if they were to play. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think if there's a ban it'll likely be at least two games. Think the players would have all been guaranteed to miss at least that originally so would make sense if it was the case. Not that the SFA necessarily uses logic in its decision making of course. Edited August 14, 2020 by Rodhull 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin.Hood Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 Our internal investigation is now complete & has confirmed a breach of AFC COVID-19 protocols and government guidance. As a result, players have been severely reprimanded and fined heavily.

d31 Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 Hayes will be getting paid a low wage at the moment so yes he'll have got off lightly compared to the likes of McKenna, McGeouch and Bryson. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingjoey Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 I feel that within Dave Cormack’s statement he should have made some comment about the health of the eight players, particularly the two who have tested positive. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
