Sorted. If the clubs wish to introduce such a rule then there is a process for that to happen. But no club has expressed such a desire. They're applying the same principle as you are in that no-one from "above" has told you to stop them playing so it's ok. Whereas it's plainly not ok. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the other hand, there are many benefits to having a hiatus. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just had to point out that your calls for the IMG to halt the games was pointless, as it was a decision the clubs would need to make. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LongTimeLurker Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 34 minutes ago, Lobby Dossar said: Nobody knows as no testing is taking place at our level There wouldn't need to be to be able to identify that there was a significant issue. If training sessions and games resulted in easy transmission between players and coaching staff then given the current level of prevalence of COVID there should be postponements happening regularly as entire teams become symptomatic and cluster effects of cases elsewhere in workplaces and schools that could easily be traced back to a WoS team as the "spreader event". That has not been happening, because football happens outdoors and is inherently low risk if sensible precautions are taken. Worry about things like secondary schools and workplaces that are being kept open indoors for reasons of economic expediency through all of this because that's a much more likely avenue for community spread. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amidst-tundra Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 (edited) Not sure why the fixation on stopping football? You should take a trip to the Forge in Glasgow right now. Thousands of people crammed into an enclosed shopping centre, many choosing not to wear facemasks or observe directions of travel. If that's OK, why should there be a moral panic regarding lower tier football. Edited December 21, 2020 by amidst-tundra 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s WoSFL playing friendly’s with no fans and no income, it’s an unnecessary risk to take for both committee, players and officials with nothing at the end of it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
not man of the match Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 If you dont want the football, give it a wide berth. Let those who WANT it, continue with what they are doing. Everyone knows the risks, they choose to take that. Those who didn’t have taken time out.Change the record, it’s boring. Very very boring. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So tell me what is the end game for all those playing this season apart from maybe bankruptcy Take it Clydebank are praying that they get a shot at the playoffs so they can take another step to try and reach their holy grail of reaching the big leagues. You were there once before and made a rip roaring c**t of yourselves so just content yourself with trying to be Billy Big Bass at the level your at. -2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess the correct people to ask would be the clubs choosing to play. Essentially all football should stop, really. I still don't understand why the WoSFL has been turned into a deadrubber, but seeing as a large number of fully professional national leagues down south like the Vanarama National are losing games each week to COVID outbreaks surely all football should close down? And while we're at it people shouldn't be allowed to gather en-masse in shopping centres or high streets. People should be banned from travelling entirely. Plenty of much larger clubs are facing bankruptcy too, so they should stop. Edited December 21, 2020 by amidst-tundra 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is clearly an inconvenient truth for some, including the SP. Now all could still change to justify your point of view (with the new variant covid ) but there's nothing showing as yet. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
