The sad thing is you really do seem to believe the antivax it's all a big government conspiracy pish you continue to spout, you probably go out at weekends burning down 5G phonemasts as well. In answer to your question when there are no restrictions on matches I very rarely if ever miss any, I can only assume you or anyone close to you has never had covid and the long term health issues it still causes to some, my wife included. But you carry on with the conspiracy theories the rest of us will do the sensible stuff

I know this will look like I'm picking on you, but: I work in Glasgow Royal Infirmary and pre-pandemic the ICU capacity was 20 beds, technically 15 ICU beds and 5 SHDU, when Covid first hit we expanded into two other areas giving a potential capacity of 36 beds. We also doubled the available ventilators from 16 to 32. The maximum number of Covid patients we had was 19 with 10 of the original 20 beds left available for non-covid patients. Currently there are about a dozen patients in ICU, two of which are Covid, the overflow areas are still set up if required. I cannot speak for all the other ICUs in Scotland but I would be astonished if they had not taken similar steps. I do agree that a lot of other conditions are, whilst not being ignored, are not receiving the urgency they require. I also agree that successive governments have treated the NHS in a disgraceful manner.

You’re an idiot.

As others have mentioned Sturgeon is in a no win situation with everything that happens with regards to this virus, and her and her party are doing the absolute best they can. I am a humungous fan of hers and would give anything to see her lead us to an independent Scotland free from the grip of Boris fucking Johnson, but the Scottish Government have made a balls up of this big time. The stupidity of being unable to attend an outdoor event where the virus spreads less easily but being allowed to watch it in a pub full of people is extremely silly. It's unbelievably frustrating to read posters on this website saying stuff like "there have been no deaths of this variant" or "it's no worse than a mild cold". It's absolutely not about the effects of COVID for the majority of people, it's about protecting the elderly and the vulnerable, and most importantly protecting our NHS from being overwhelmed and overcrowded. Missing the pub and the football for a few weeks to prevent that happening is fine by me, and it should be fine by everyone too.

If the NHS had been properly funded, by politicians both past and present, we maybe wouldn't be in this position, but that's a topic for another time.

Does football exist in a vacuum utterly devoid of laws?

Shafted? Financially disadvantaged? Do certain folks think Burrows states club position (its a collective too, with some influence around him) on various platforms without that level of understanding? From my reading, didn’t make it about finance - was about fans attending. The rights and wrongs over the SPFL ruling is a different debate. Now with ScotGov covering percentage cost and an insurance policy that works in our favour - it’s not out the question we’ll be in a better spot financially - accounts will align with this.

Agreed. Football and politics should never mix.

Is this a preview to livi game or question time? We all have our own political views which is everyone's right in a democracy. But let's get back to fitba matters.....COYW

What, and risk falling off the edge of the flat Earth in the dark? Not a chance. On a (much) more serious note, 'Well 3-1 Livi. I feel Bevis's name may be on one of our 3.

Suggest you take a trip to the COVID ward at WishaW General ……… might change your mindset !!!!

Science tells us that 0 people have died of The latest variety of the virus, I think another virus that leaves more people than the current virus struggling is flu, yet we do t shut down businesses, Crash economies, destroy lives n bankrupt the country again because if that, so peoples lives are very important but so is the ability to make a personal choice to go to an outdoor football game and not be holed up in the bunker because of a “very mild virus “ (as described by multiple eminent scientists) so perhaps you yourself should take a peek at yourself from behind the bed or wherever you’re hiding from the virus n then maybe your views might not be so honkin

Poor analogy that. Even by your standards, your dislike is beyond the pale. Did he knock you back for a reacharound?

My hope is by July this ( yeah it’s been as bad as hopefully our lives ever get )will be gone and I can be one of the fans to again follow my team in Europe, drop of a hat can we get Ajax

When you support a team that only exists to improve people's lives it's inevitable.

Whatever happened to those Covid passports we were all so keen on?
