NorthBank Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 We were praised by no other than Jason Leitch after the keeper situation so our procedures were not only working but had been investigated and praised. What has happened over the last two weeks is unknown. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feel to illustrate this in a bar chart. There are measures to follow which we may or may not be managing to do. No onus on clubs to throw money on personnel to implement strict measures on top of the resources already required for twice weekly testing. That's from the "return to football" booklet handed out to clubs from the SFA/SPFL. 2 positions created at clubs to solely deal with Covid. I've zero idea if St Mirren had these or not, I just remembered there were specific jobs created to deal with it, so you announcing youd hired two people made me question it.

You seem quite desperate to stop supporting your club. Not me mate I have been going since 1967 would not give up now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neither appointment carries either of those job titles. We already had personnel at the club who were responsible for those duties. A Club doctor i would imagine would be better placed to monitor emerging evidence related to Covid-19 and advise on this than someone implementing process and carrying out risk assessments. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I say, I just seen St Mirren hiring 2 Covid specific staff, remembered only 2 were required to start with, and questioned it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

None of those posts require to be single issue posts. For example within my work the same person is the COVID officer, Freedom of Information Officer, Data Protection Officer, Health and Safety officer, head of IT and numerous other roles. These appointments sound positive but there is nothing to suggest that they are full time employees. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sortmeout Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 St Mirren must be rolling in it financially if they made these appointments even after the Chief Medical Officer said that they were doing everything correctly. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, we're minted. But it helps that these two appointments are fans and one was an ex-player.

Left back, very surprised he’s not found a club further up the levels tbh. Decent player who was a target for our boo boys and will probably always divide opinions. He’s matured as a player in my opinion, and at his best bombing forward. Defensively not so great but you can’t have it all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
