DeeTillEhDeh Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 Seems remarkable to me. "Graduations" from primary school? Kids being 'devastated' by having no school 'proms'? Its amazing that folk my age survived childhood and adolescence at all after being denied such essentials. Can't be long before the ambulance-chasing heroes from Mssrs Sue, Grabbit and Runne have tv adverts set against a background of crying children surrounded by piles of unused party dresses and tuxedos.... something like "Was your school experience utterly destroyed by not graduating from nursery? Life chances ruined by not going to a party? Email us now at chancingshysters.co.uk or outragedsnowflake.co.uk and we'll make sure you get what you deserve!" FB maws missing out on bombarding their friends with pictures no-one can really be arsed looking at.Result. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
realmadrid Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 If Celtic win next week the dutch have rules that allow them to travel despite the ban on entry from the UK if they get an invite from KNVB https://www.government.nl/topics/coronavirus-covid-19/visiting-the-netherlands-from-abroad/exemptions-to-the-entry-ban/elite-athletes-and-their-support-staff 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeeTillEhDeh Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 Its an absolute joke McDermid park can’t be packed for arguably the biggest game Saints have ever had. So how come Saints can't fill 2 sides of their ground when the Old Firm come to town?Or when they play their "derby rivals"?[emoji8] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBF it was known as soon as the draw came out I know that Saints had meetings with UEFA on Tuesday and the rules have been in place for months. Just our luck to be the first Scottish club side to hit the problem. Our fans have missed so much of this glory period. Having missed 2 cup finals and now this we better get a good tie in the play offs of either competition. Id still rather have this than a glamour league game v Ayr and championship fixtures to look forward to. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparky88 Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 38 minutes ago, Todd_is_God said: So literally anyone in Scotland can travel to Carlisle and go to a packed nightclub (with zero Covid measures in place whatsoever) and go wherever they like in Scotland on return but regularly tested Galatasaray players can't fly in on a charter flight, get bussed to a hotel, play at McDairmid park, and then immediately fly back to Turkey? Turkey has extremely strict Covid measures in place (facemasks worn at all times outside your home, for example) - the fact that they only count symptomatic people as cases doesn't change that. There must surely come a point where someone in the Government takes a step back and thinks "This makes no sense at all. What can we do to make it make sense?" Given that Government ministers haven't been bothered about inconsistencies previously in the pandemic (remember the one about your mother not being allowed into your house unless she is your estate agent?) I don't think they will start now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's not kid ourselves on that if Turkey had made the semi finals (or even the round of 16 game due to be played in Dublin but moved to Wembley) they would not have been allowed to play at Wembley. An utter sham. Edited July 22, 2021 by Todd_is_God 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thereisalight.. Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 (edited) I’m probably in the minority here but I find this a step too far. Elite athletes aren’t going to be dropping dead or getting seriously ill from covid. With so many BAME players in that league that’s another obstacle to get over *cant get the link to add but it’s saying all premier league players and staff have to be double dosed by the time the season starts Edited July 22, 2021 by Thereisalight.. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abdul_Latif Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 1 hour ago, virginton said: They can't implement this policy by August 9th because nowhere near all adults will have even received two vaccinations by this point. Which is when it gets launched in the bin as discriminatory nonsense, yet again. Aye but until everyone is sufficiently vaccinated they can demand a test like they are currently requesting we take twice a week become mandatory and uploaded to your COVID app. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
