  1. Is such behaviour allowed on this forum ? Surely the etiquette is to have a petty squabble ending in name calling over the next 5 pages. Forum standards must be upheld at all times.
  2. Or to put another way, if the number of currently infected people is growing, R is above 1. If it is reducing, R is below 1
  3. If UK was boarderline, would it be red and yellow ?
  4. Let us know if you get a reply
  5. Not that I can find or that anyone has been able to show
  6. Forget about the legality and redundancy law, how can a player be in the first team bio-bubble and be a coach for the youth team ? (Not that I believe Doolan coming back was ever a real possibility other than in the eyes of the rose tinted glasses brigade, or that there were any redundancies from the Weir Accademy)
  7. He didn’t say it to any player. It was the physio coming back from treating a player who had knocked his head against the post. There is absolutely no doubt that player was Colin McGlashan. Has anyone thought of emailing the club ? Gerry must have been in the squad at that time and may remember the game
  8. Guess who is going to score against us if the Betfred cup game gets played
  9. I have doubts about any of these games (or any football at our level) being played. How do the part time teams meet the bio-bubble requirements when players are postmen and plumbers during the day, and that is before the second wave which is hitting everywhere else.
  10. The only bit of that I believe is “was within budget”
  11. Highly unlikely. Most players who currently have contracts would have signed them before covid
  12. 1 venue with very tight controls. Not 20 venues across the country
  13. Before he joined us it was possible
  14. I may be in a minority, but I don't give a damn what the ground is called. For me, any loss of revenue is a concern.
  15. I'm sure that they can have appeals for situations like that, but something has to be done. How would you feel about a season long ban for any player caught doing something stupid ?
  16. They are punishing the team for being unable to fulfill it's fixtures, which is not unreasonable
  17. I disagree about teams being awarded a 3-0 win for a game called off for a covid infringement. If St. Mirren had been awarded a 3-0 win over Celtic, it's not going to make much difference to Celtic winning the league, but could make a huge difference at the other end with the teams fighting relegation. So effectively it is punishing the likes of Hamilton, Livingston and Ross. A better penalty would be a points deduction (3 to 5 points) and then the game gets rescheduled, making it fair for all teams.
  18. No shit ! Any other goal and he should be sacked
  19. If the government were to put a halt on the return of football, what would be the conditions for restarting again ? With Hibs top of the league, could their players go out on the town, causing the league to be stopped and they would be declared champions (level with Rangers and Ross on average points, but a better goal difference)
  20. Other Leagues and other sports do have the same problems, it is just that they don’t make the Scottish news. Down here several minor City and United players have broken rules recently. Then there were the sex parties under lockdown, some in Paris. In F1, Leclerc had an unauthorised visit home to Monaco and Vettel was in the same car as another team manager. Jofray Archer in cricket broke the lockdown rules they have. Basically young men with too much money think the law doesn’t apply to them. I do agree that the penalties should be tougher, but I’m not sure that would fix the problem.
  21. Tough draw, especially when you won't be catching the SPL club cold.
  22. Just remember that 68.3% of statistics are a load of rubbish
