People like him getting publicity most of it in self interest don't help and he doesn't speak for everyone opposed. Even if he was in Ireland, it's a bit of a weak threat to boycott a place that won't let you in anyway. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoVid regulations seemed to be in place but then were slowly disregarded as the day went on I did. I thought it was odd insisting you sit at a table to eat and drink, but having you queue up at the bar yourself to collect and carry your drinks over. I get being seated is the current law, but, as buying at the bar certainly isn't, it was slightly daft. Wearing a mask for 10 seconds to go through the turnstile did make me chuckle. Also interesting to see the difference between a racecourse and the hoops football clubs have to jump through. You can tell the racecourse were trying their best to comply, but that the current regulations don't really work at large events. Be glad to get rid of them a week tomorrow and see the difference on the 27th. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, only thing I noticed was at the beginning of the evening they were stopping folk going from the bars to the concourse with drinks and no drinks at the bookies but it got to a point where the stewards quite rightly just gave in and stopped giving a f**k ETA, pretty sure I spotted you but as I'm not the kind of man who approaches folk off an Internet forum I went about my business Edited August 1, 2021 by Bert Raccoon 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All 3 Scottish tracks slightly different with Musselburgh being fully app driven at seats but they all worked but no buzz like there was at York. Roll on the Tuesday announcement. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeeTillEhDeh Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 Quite. What a thick twat that Lawrence Fox really is. Strictly enforced too according to a guy on here who's over there on holiday. Reading the comments, most of those following him are as thick as pigshit.And if Lawrence Fox frequents Costa then I'm a fucking Dutchman. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshbairn Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 (edited) Lawrence Fox, Gillian McKeith. Build it and they will come. Gillian McKeith should stick to sniffing jobbies. The UK hasn't decided whether 3rd booster jags are worthwhile either, the Mexico thing is a non story.

Mark Connolly Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 Fair play to Laurence Fox, almost making himself relevant rather than just being the least famous actor in his family, and the lesser-known of Billie Piper's ex-husbands. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Bob Mahelp Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 Pittodrie today - testing, photo IDs, no food, compulsory mask wearing, turn up 2 hours before game, social distanced seats, told when to leave seat. Fir Park today - no social distancing, no masks, nobody gives a f**k. What a fucking joke. What's the point of it all ? Either do it everywhere, or don't do it at all. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aberdeen city and shire and have far fewer cases than both north Lanarkshire and Edinburgh (looking at last nights game). Yet fans attending the game at Pittodrie had to jump through hoops like performing poodles and do everything aside from wearing hazmat suits, where as fans at Fir Park and Tynecastle last night both looked like they are/were enjoying the experience of a normal game. Ridiculous virtue signalling from Aberdeen city council, sadly supported by Aberdeen FC who seem determined to act like they're doing fans a favour while actually making it as uncomfortable as possible to support the team. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He didn’t say that was why it was abolished though, did he? He said that if you don’t believe in rehabilitation, you might as well bring it back as there is no other “cure”. Which is a completely moronic 'point' because wrongful conviction is in fact the primary reason why you should do no such thing. Better luck white knighting your fellow pub bore next time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elixir Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 Cases continue to go down. It'll be two weeks (just wait) tomorrow since England binned almost all restrictions. And the bed wetters really aren't taking it well. It's almost as if they wanted the laughable 100,000 cases per day to get one over the nasty Toriez and don't give a toss about folk getting ill or dying. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
