3-0 up. Twenty minutes to go? (I'm still traumatised)
My thoughts exactly

So you wonât see any of the game?? Surely the food trucks stop serving outside before the gate starts?
Guessing spectators are allowed to cut out and grab something from the mobile unit as with Edinburgh Rugby (where the trucks are right outside the stand & even stay open after FT to serve fans on their way out), as our finish time has been given as 6-7pm. But yeah with a bit of luck should get out a bit early and catch some of the match!

Apologies for the brazen request but...anyone driving up to Dingwall on Sunday from Glasgow area (or know anyone that is) and got a spare seat in the car back? Wasn't anticipating getting a ticket for the match so by virtue of working the Belladrum Festival last summer I've gone for the next best thing and will be working at the game! Going to be serving food on the trucks outside but finished up by FT. I'm getting the Megabus up to Inverness first thing then bus/train to Dingwall from there - just getting public transport back looking a bit trickier! Happy to exchange details via DM, also willing to contribute petrol money too

Not long since home, echo the above. Great crowd and noise from the off, definitely 7000 odd Jags fans packed into the JH & JL stands, and flares only let off at the two goals! Very crowded up the back of JL as some wee guys climbed up the back of the beams the flags are set on and watched from the very top, only to be told at HT to get down making it even more crowded!
But would absolutely have taken 2-0 this afternoon as it was seen as a game between pretty evenly matched sides. Could and should have put the tie to bed tonight but it's fantastic that our only complaint is not winning by 3,4 or 5 - and if we get across the line up in Dingwall none of that will matter anyway! As Doolan said in the Aiken Suite at FT we know how it is to be the Premiership side in these play-offs. Not fun, and people already have the uneasy feeling it may well be their relegation day. Also remember Peterhead in 2006, when we went up there 2-1 down, needing a result and still managing to pull that off. So looking at the big picture this is a great night and our only complaints are about minor side issues. Highlight also was Britton & Dools' appearance in the Aiken Suite at almost 10:45 just as I was walking out the door having decided he wasn't coming!

Kevin Holt!!!

Sneddon's made a couple of decent saves but otherwise pitch has probably been our main saviour!

Why no live reporting from the BBC???
It's on Radio Scotland
ETA: Listening very nervously as sounds like both sides have had chances to win it

I am sure the SPFL will be asking serious questions about our ability to finish this season while we are allowing QP to ground share.  Did Motherwell not have issues a few seasons ago about their amount of postponements.Â
Maybe if we win our games in hand and find ourselves top of the league we'll be awarded the title on a points-per-game basis, because based on recent history that's fair.
Or we & QPÂ end up having to complete our home fixtures at...HampdenÂ

Queen of the South having equalised too, with Raith missing a penalty moments later. Fingers crossed
-
Yep, not a bad weekend for us in terms of our top four hopes. It's where I'd have been happy with at the start of the season and if (& I know it's a big if) we can make our games in hand count we're more than in with a shout

Can probably forget Hamilton on the 8th as well then if the positive tests are from recent days?

I take it as just an omission that there's no mention of a live stream being provided!
Yep, if not hopefully someone has it on their phone and it can be propped up somewhere, or subs can run through and tell us if anything interesting's happening as part of their warm-up

I don't think anyone's calling us title challengers based on today, but to finish bottom half now would be bitterly disappointing. As is traditional in this league, there isn't a great deal between the sides & anyone can beat anyone on their day. Didn't see the match but guess it shows that if we play well we shouldn't drop many points against the sides below us - even bearing in mind Ayr United were potentially relegation standard
-
Daylight opening up between top & bottom half now, good to be on the right side of it! On course for a perfect day (as Lou Reed would say)
-
Would take a 0-0 given the conditions and fact Ayr Utd have a new manager, don't think that's going to happen though. Not expecting a great game so would take any old win if the conditions are better suited to our style. Who knows, may even mean one of our crosses finally end up in the back of the net!
All games still going ahead today so far? I'd have expected a few postponements given the past few miserable days.

Thatâs Norway removed all restrictions and emergency COVID laws since 4pm today, declared the pandemic over in Norway.Â
Hopefully weâre the 1st of many and we all get right back to normalÂDenmark also done so I believe?

Itâs quite alarming that a lot of the âconspiraciesâ posted then (including on here) seem to not only being proven to be true, but seem to be welcomed.
Just shows if you control the media you control the population. So was the vaccination made for COVID or was COVID made for the vaccination??
It's utterly bonkers. And no, we're not the only ones that feel that way (although it may feel like it at times). Hopefully with every 'booster' the population are asked to go for there'll be a few more that stop & wonder about this whole circus - but hey these things are only 'temporary' (for now) and don't be surprised if we go into more restrictions next month anywayÂ

You donât need it to attend the bingo (indoors) with a high percentage of  âat riskâ people, but need it to go to a club with 100 low risk teenagers??
Im just back from Donegal where the bars ask, but are told to âF offâ by locals, Garda are told the same and just shrug and leave.
This no longer has anything to do with stopping the spread (Vaccination doesnât stop it, testing does), encouraging itâs all about control.Â
ÂI am double vaccinated but will not provide this data except when crossing a border (as I would previously for entering certain countries).Â
ÂOut of likes. Yep, the good old days of 2020 when all this was just 'conspiracy nonsense' eh!

Ok - it is clear that you have no issue with regulation and only the ability to pay for that. Â To be effective, the LFD test would need to be registered and acknowledged by NHS. At the Reading festival recently, many positive tests were found discarded outside - presumably by people who just went in anyway. The point is that Vaccine passports are proof, saying I had a negative LFD test isnât.
His other point is that vaccination is scant guarantee you're not carrying it or spreading it to others.
As another poster has pointed out, if this is mainly about cajoling more reluctant groups into getting their jag, it would at least be nice for it to be said so. One could however argue this amounts to coercion and violates the principle of voluntary & informed consent we have in this country

From the outset it was subject to a vote in parliament. You're implying that the vote was introduced subsequently.

Then I stand corrected, just much of what I saw yesterday implied it was pretty much a done deal.

Couldnât disagree more âŚ..some people seem to think they have a right to infect other people with covid as some kind of human  right they donâtÂ
Fair enough but check my second bullet point - it's just a pity there's no evidence of its effect on spread of the disease, only symptoms. I realise this isn't the place for a full blown debate on the whole wider issue but think it makes little sense given it's not proposed for more enclosed public spaces e.g. transport

This will be the subject of a vote in the Scottish Parliament. If you have strong views on the matter you should contact your MSP. I don't see the point of burdening our clubs overstretched staff when the matter is beyond their control. The proposal is unlikely to affect them anyway.
Yep, that's what's next. I see there's now going to be a vote on it - I just e-mailed to make my position clear going forward, as a number of other fans have with their clubs in the event we're lucky enough for there to be some form of consultation.
-
So I'm sure you've seen in the news the Scottish Gov proposals around V-passports for large events, e.g. football matches, nightclubs etc. My question is, how would each of us feel if this were brought in at Firhill?
I ask since as far as I can see, there's already been a fair backlash with fans e-mailing their respective clubs to say they won't be attending if this were a requirement. I personally am also in that boat, and have already e-mailed Thistle to state the same. My reasons being
- wasn't required during EURO 2020 (e.g. at Hampden)
- it's a trial drug with no evidence of long-term effectiveness against disease, or its infection, carrying or transmission
- our medical history & who we share it with is no-one's business but our own. We don't need anyone's permission to live our lives, especially from the government.
And if you're also in agreement, could be an idea for a few more of us to get in touch with the club to make it clear where we stand on the issue going forward? Cheers
