Professor Linda Bauld warned that, despite lots of outdoor seating, “alcohol inhibition” and fans' excitement, meant there would inevitably be close contact, risking coronavirus spread. Yep we must not encourage these pesky ''escape mutants'' to spread due to people getting carried away. Oh for the days when these melts were only heard from to moan about people taking in cake to offices or demanding more taxes on unhealthy food. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They hate everything that involves anyone potentially enjoying themselves. 'Alcohol inhibition' for fucks sake. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bairnardo Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 I honestly hope the fanzone just goes fucking tonto, distancing, tables, the whole lot abandoned and it turns into a proper one. Im sure plenty in the media would whine and moan about it, it would just be glorious to witness. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im not a drinker, but for me, the safest possible way to encourage sensible drinking is to actually allow it in grounds. Would encourage moderation and tbf we’re talking about a few pints of lager, hardly selling hard liquor or anything. also lets clubs get a wee bit of revenue, you could even do it on the basis that the money has to be used to fund youth football or facilities etc and everyone wins? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moray should have already seen large numbers hospitalised if it was coming, and surely if Glasgow Southside shouldnt have already based on the assumed time of infection to detection to hospitilasation, it must be imminent? If all that happens despite the DeLtA vArIaNt!!!! Being more transmissible by 40% is a few unvaxxed folks make it to a hospital bed then its high time that we moved on from being hopeful that the link might be being broken to, we have clear real world proof of it. We are very close to or just slightly beyond the point that people from the outbreaks in the southside of Glasgow etc would start hitting ICU etc. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billy Jean King Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 No, it’s staggered entrance times from what I heard. Places like Killie did the same during the play off games and they were strict and wouldn’t let fans in until their designated time slot. Unsure what would happen if someone rocked up at 1.30pm when their time slot was say 12.30 UEFA have confirmed it's merely guidance. A guy posted an emailed response on the tickets thread. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem with these people and a lot of politicians is that they live in their little political and academic bubbles. They don't understand the people they represent, they don't live a life like the majority of their constituents. They just don't understand what makes mr average tick I.e sport, entertainment, pubs, real life. It's all about politics, academica and their limited life experiences for those types. I never want to hear from these people ever again after this. Please fade back into obscurity and let people live a real life. Agreed she’s bad but not in the same league as that Devi Sridhar woman. You can just see the pleasure in her smirking smile when she doles out the bad news. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
101 Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 (edited) Fan zones should be scrapped, get down your local and give them all your money rather than some "events company" charging at least £5 a pint. Edited June 6, 2021 by 101 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G4S at Hampden are notoriously nit picking kunts at the best of times. I can imagine how jumped up a lot of them will be about ticket times 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthernLights Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 I remember before the League Cup semi final against Rangers the Hampden stewards found a satsuma in my pocket during a patdown search.

It's frustrating, but they aren't recruited from Sunday Times adverts. They'll have capacity to remember and implement the basics. Discretion is not encouraged, even if they had the common sense.
