The first lockdown, and the one in October, came in when the r0 was already dropping, schools were closed, and the average cases by specimen date had plateaued / were falling. For the first time two of those three don't apply, and they are flapping. Can't be arsed getting into your lockdowns don't work chat (I disagree) but its different this time. Locking down while rolling out a vaccine is a billion times away from locking down with no long term solution in sight. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no more public health reason at all to regularly test lower leagues players than teachers or supermarket workers. Those guys can play just using social distancing. I’m pretty sure they don’t pay money back to the tv company if a game is postponed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They had to pay back money for not finishing the season and cancelling games at short notice has costs attached even without fans in attendance. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jan Vojáček Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 I'll be honest, I'm really not sure how I'm going to react to another March style lockdown. Especially if there's no end in sight. If that is to be what NS announces today then there needs to be a guaranteed end to it. Be that "until X number of people are vaccinated" or a date or whatever. I can't deal with another year of "three weeks to flatten the curve" followed by three months of lockdown. And "two weeks of stricter restrictions to buy us time" - that stretch from October until at least the following January. It only struck me late last night that I'd spent the whole of yesterday thinking about what was coming today. And that isn't healthy. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It only struck me late last night that I'd spent the whole of yesterday thinking about what was coming today. And that isn't healthy.They almost certainly have to say restrictions in place until X date and Y number of vaccinations. My opinion what we’re getting today is -Delay to schools returning until Middle February. Blended learning for pupils over a set age and schools left open for key workers children’s. A repeated message of work from home if you can. Detail this will be requested until the end of March to fit in with lasting a year. Confirmation of non essential businesses to be closed until the end of January. Ban on non essential travel outside of local area to be put into law. Usforthem to lose their marbles. Lord McConnell to be an insufferable p***k claiming schools need to be open. As an aside I can see the UK gov and teaching unions have a massive fight in the coming days. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aufc Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 I've loved the "I'm an insider" stuff on here during this, definitely been a highlight of the thread. I don't think anything will top someone claiming that their source in "FVRH" would "definitely hear the chat" while falsely stating with absolute certainty that Falkirk would go into tier 4, shortly before it went into tier 2.“Ma vaccine guy” was also decent 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
