No one cared where you sat or what you did. No catering. Same at Grant St once you were through the gates. But even Lossie were selling pies ffs, they have to sort the catering out pronto. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. Is it anything to do with Aberdeen pushing for as high an attendance limit as possible and getting strict enforcement rules in return? Not that I have any respect for Aberdeen Council. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that I have any respect for Aberdeen Council. That's pretty much it. I would imagine other clubs would have received instructions from their local councils, but nobody seemed to give a f**k. It looks like it was only at Pittodrie where it was enforced and people went along with it. Giving these powers to the councils means that there's absolutely no consistency Scotland-wide, and in Aberdeen's case it doesn't bode well for games after 9th August, where it's got to be suspected that the city council will be reluctant to give up these sweeping powers.

Wee Bully Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 1 hour ago, virginton said: 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. Did anyone suggest otherwise? What a strange little man you are, screaming into the void. You could just have admitted that you made a roaring c**t of it, and we would have all moved on. But no, you doubled down and continued to make a point no-one disputes, and that had no relevance to the debate. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it feasible to send that elsewhere? I’d be fully on board with jagging more of our under 18’s rather than waste it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any guesses on what will happen? If there was to be any major impact we would have seen it by now. Quite a lot of scientists didn't think 'step four' would change that much, it was simply hardly reported because of the hysterics. Could anyone tell me what Scotland waiting three weeks has actually achieved then, considering we were ahead of England in this exit wave? Seems to me it was simply yet more pissing about with the economy and people's lives to give the impression of caring and making people feel safer. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benjamin_Nevis Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 Anyone know the script with hospice visits in end of life situations? My old man's got days at best and my mum, sister and me are 2 different households. Just now we have to visit separately but surely when the end comes we can all be with him? I can find anything definitive 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. Stewards at Fir Park didn’t give a f**k of if you were wearing a mask going into the ground and moving about. You could sit anywhere in the stand with your family or pals. Even the Police standing outside the away end today didn’t stop anyone asking why they weren’t wearing a face mask going into the ground. Felt like a proper away game today. I really hope the SG notice soon that hardly anyone is sticking to these mask rules and lift the law on them eventually. Jason Leitch and the Karen’s on facebook will be a seething mess at football fans enjoying theirselves today whether that was Motherwell or Hibs fans.

Understood that my 93 yo Mother would only be allowed to wave through the window to her 105 yo sister, until we made contact and sorted out something like a normal visit. Low key and understanding the pressure they're under is the best way to get past the bureaucratics.

Hospice folks when my mum was in were simply the finest and most compassionate professionals I have ever come across. All the best. I was there at the very end and in a way, consider myself lucky, hard though it was to watch. Leave no questions one way or the other my man. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmy boo Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 Aberdeen seem to be the outlier in all this, the Motherwell experience is certainly more in line with everywhere else that I've heard of.You can lump St Mirren in with Aberdeen. 1089 fans allowed in...grrrrr 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wore my mask because it doesn't really bother me having to do it and I'm not a perma-seething attention-seeking arsehole. If I was twenty years younger and wanting to chant maybe I would have binned the masks like the young team in the Merkland Stand were doing, but I go to the fitba principally to watch my team play fitba, and having a bit of cloth over my nose and mouth doesn't block me from doing that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
