I don't get why the SPFL are just trousering the fine. The fine is going to the SPFLTrust - ie to charity. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clydeside Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 The fine ethical judgements generated by this season have been more interesting than the football. With the rescheduled match due to be played only a little over a week later, I wonder if those East Fife players who were concerned about infection will want to be involved. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It back to the good old days when promotion and relegation was decided by how many seats each club had and who went bust at the end of the season and teh resulting legal challenges. Now it's all about covid disciplinary hearings and judges enquiries. It's like House of Cards. Edited April 29, 2021 by Gordon EF 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, and if it comes to it then a positive about our final game now being next Thursday is that at least we will know what's required, rather than sitting idle on Tuesday nervously awaiting on outcome from Dumbarton.

Clyde01 Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 (edited) If we are safe in 8th by then it’s essentially a post season friendly. If we are already consigned to 9th by the time this match comes around we should just decide we don’t fancy it and take a £1000 hit to rest up for the play offs.

The definition of a close contact has been laid out right from the start. face-to-face contact including being coughed on or having a face-to-face conversation within one metre been within one metre for one minute or longer without face-to-face contact been within 2 metres of someone for more than 15 minutes (either as a one-off contact, or added up together over one day) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fine will be covered easily anyway judging by the amount of folk on the replies to the SPFL twitter post re the investigation outcome suggesting a GoFundMe page. Edited April 29, 2021 by C.

sydney Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 If we end up in the playoffs, we will have 2 days to recover from Thursday’s game and will have to foot the bill for the additional game costs. This decision takes no account of the impact on Clyde who complied with protocols. Ultimately the SPFL don’t really give a toss if it’s not the Premier league they’re dealing with. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

haufdaft Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 If we're above Dumbarton on PPG as of next Thursday's game. Refuse to play the match, take the paltry £1000 fine and finish 8th. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
