Five. Five old firm players in the squad. The worst thing about it isn’t the statement, it’s that no one else on the show steps in to correct him, so it goes unchallenged and passed off as fact. These guys literally take a wage to talk about Scottish football. The Scotland squads aren’t a secret, anyone can have a look at the recent call ups and see that it’s just a complete untruth. It’s only in the last couple of years that Rangers have had anyone at all in the squad, and even at that it’s been one or two players. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DA Baracus Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 (edited) Are they being wilfully ignorant about the Kilmarnock situation or are they really so thick that they can't see why it was different from the St Mirren situation?

Ira Gaines Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 I'd say it's both. A political decision guided by medical advice. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craigkillie Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 What do think it is? I mean what do you think is behind the decision?They don't trust football fans and treat them differently to the general public. There is certainly no great public health reason as to why indoor social clubs at football stadiums can open with 1m social distancing, yet the outdoor stadium next door can't have anyone in even with 2m distancing (or more). The science is very clear about which of those is actually more dangerous. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If all that c**t Mulraney (as well as that all-round good guy Doncaster) are trying to state here is that 'politicians make the final decision on what stays closed and open' then their Captain Obvious contribution is worthless. Everybody fucking knows this already: there isn't and never has been some super-authority above the level of political leaders who execute decisions about the pandemic since March: perhaps there should have been but it isn't our current reality. By stressing that it is a political decision they are quite clearly insinuating that the decision has little to no clinical or scientific basis. If they felt that it had both then they wouldn't be contesting it in the first place. We can understand their obvious reasons for doing this right now - it is a lobbying move to put pressure on the government to change its mind - but I think it will spectacularly backfire.

The science might say doing activity A is pretty much safe and activity B is pretty much safe but doing Activity A + B tips the risk over the edge so pick one. Picking that would be political choice. Keeping football shut down is absolutely political and football fans (with justification TBF) are treated differently. I took it to be an entirely bland contribution that Gordon etc got more excited by than was actually in it but maybe I'm naive Edited October 3, 2020 by invergowrie arab 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
