The "wordlwide reset" conspiracy theory is far-right drivel, putting two and two together and making 477. With all the actual real news hitting us day after day I am amazed that those with a sinister agenda can attract cretinous simpletons to their conspiracy nonsense. It doesn't stand up to 30 seconds scrutiny. Edited January 11, 2021 by Ivo den Bieman 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon EF Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 There's a reasonable argument for a January pause. A lot of games will be off anyway. With a month of lockdown under our belt and vaccinations rolling onwards, it could be the case that once we're through January, if we've got transmission down significantly, we can get through the rest of the season without too much bother. Games cancelled can be caught up on in midweeks in the spring. It would be a total nonsense to cancel the season at this point. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not saying any of your statements or mine are right or wrong , but with so many untold facts and unreliable figures , I have tried to keep an open mind. I try to trust what is being fed to us but the inconsistency of just about every control measure makes me wonder. I do sometimes wonder who the cretinous simpletons are at times though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately I think it's you. There is a lot of confusing information, but there's enough reliable information available to allow you to draw conclusions. If you can't sort out the obvious conspiracies from the facts then I don't think anyone on here is able to help you further. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neilly Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 Three week suspension confirmed. Makes perfect sense. I'm amazed it has taken this long. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's absolutely no way that this lockdown will be limited to January. You just need to see todays comments from the English CMO to see what's in the pipeline. Unless we have something whereby midweek football is the norm, the rest of the season is going to be a logistical nightmare. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

true fan Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 Unavoidable the premier league and championship being treated differently presumably because they are full time, players not mixing with people in other jobs and maybe they have resources for regular testing (is that happening - anybody...?) even so the way it is being done doesn’t feel right. Celtic haven’t done football’s reputation any good (I suppose their defenders at least have been social distancing during games) and footballers being what they are I’m sure we will be reading about raith rovers and hearts players breaking social distancing rules in really stupid ways. Should have been all pausing not just lower divisions 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That sounds OK to me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The amount of people involved in senior games are significantly more than any lower league games. If it’s about testing and the lower league teams can’t afford frequent testing why does it have to cost so much and why can’t the SG use some of the money the’ve got stashed away. -2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Burton Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 What's the story with Alloa and Arbroath ? Are their players being kept in a bubble too ? Can't see how that is feasible but they will have to test the players now. I don't think we will be back playing in 3 weeks and there is little chance of finishing the season unless it is extended beyond April. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I fear it will last a lot longer than that, suspension of the season has been coming for some weeks now and is likely to end with abandonment of the remaining fixture list. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
