So between 5 and 20 PC have been in a pub or restaurant and MAY have caught it there, if there are ones who aren't doing the controls properly, by all means, close them. That still leaves between 80 and 95 PC who haven't..
outdoor contact sports also stopped , is there evidence that there have been any transmission from this , genuine question??
House gatherings will continue unabated where presumably the vast majority are occurring
...sledgehammer to crack a nut comes to mind
The reason the Govt know those figures is because track and trace is working in those circumstances.
It’s the punters who cause the problems by giving false contact details so they could potentially be wandering about spreading the virus without even knowing they’ve been in contact with someone in the pub at the same time who has tested positive and might even be positive themselves
Those are likely the same ones who don’t wear masks in shops and go to house parties every week.
Its virtually impossible to prove whether someone has caught the virus through contact sports.
The affected Accies/Killie/St Mirren players could have caught it in a shop or restaurant just as easily as at a training session
All any Govt can do is try and stop people meeting in large numbers to slow down the spread and unfortunately for us football falls into that category.
Anyway hope our 2 guys haven’t been anywhere near Stuart Armstrong.

I'm honestly amazed at how many folk are struggling with this...'I can sit on the bus to go an get my messages' so 'how can I not sit on a bus to a midweek cup game in Dundee'
Because going for your messages is an essential journey, going to a football match isn’t

Fair enough , but if we had figures to indicate where and how transmission takes place, e.g pubs/ restaurants apparently are something like 5% of cases .
It would be interesting to know how widely it has been transmitted in an outdoor setting ,therefore with some sort of breakdown, it would be easier to risk assess rather than just stop things completely.
if the track/ trace system is working effectively, these figs should be available.
Contact tracing has established that approx 1 in 5 people or 20% who tested positive had been in a cafe/bar/restaurant in the 14 days prior to being tested so think the 5% figure infection rate from those type of premises might be vastly underestimated.

Someone on P&B saying we’ve signed Jack Hamilton from Dundee now
Suppose we’ll find out soon enough

The way I look at it is we’re replacing one player with a better one so that can’t be a bad thing

Who in the Sheva team hasn’t been booked?

As a manager he still pretty inexperienced, right? So I’m sure he’ll improve with experience to where he will have less need to turn things around in the first place.
I’m sure he will.
There hasn’t been a Manager in history that hasn’t had to turn things around at some point. Some succeed and some don’t.
The ones that do tend to have longer and more successful careers

I’ve always been of the opinion we won’t be relegated under Robinson, he always has a way of turning things around.
Which is the sign of a good Manager

You could see the confidence levels rise as the game went on.
Totally comfortable and never looked as if Aberdeen were going to stage any kind of comeback
Hapoy days

Like every player we sign, I’ll reserve judgement until I actually see him play.
Ayr Utd fans certainly rate him very highly.

Harry Robinson away on loan to QOS
His granny is over on Well Boys3 wishing him good luck.
Wonder if she tells Robbo what they’re saying about him on there.

Wearing my sensible head this should be straight forward, equivalent to the early League Cup stages in recent years, with my Motherwell head on, I was at Edinburgh City and Stranraer.
Still have nightmares about those 2 games.

Doubt there would be much of a case unless they could prove negligence. Nobody was forcing them to go in the first place.
Funny enough I was out with a friend who is a Lawyer In one of those firms who specialise in no win no fee accident claims and he was saying that they had already had quite a few people contacting them to see if they would take on their case because they had caught Covid.
Joked that his firm was opening up a new dept called Coronavirus Claims 4U.
I hope he was joking but wouldn’t be surprised if something like that did happen eventually

tbh I quite enjoyed the odd few moments of Verizon advertising to take my mind off just how bad the game was.

All this chat about how we are heading for certain relegation got me thinking about what fans of other clubs are saying about their team so I took a couple of hours to scrawl through all the forums of RossCo,St Mirren et al and guess what?
They are saying the same things about their teams that we’re saying about ours.
Truth of the matter is that the quality of our League this season is crap and every team in the bottom 8 are as bad as each other.
Whether that is down to the unusual circumstances with Covid or not I don’t know but not having the usual build up to games and the lack of match atmosphere might be having a negative effect on every team.

Just as a side note , and nothing to do with football ...why are some people walking alone outside with masks on?
Maybe they’re on their way to blag someone’s house and don’t want to get caught on CCTV.

Any redevelopment of the Main stand would presumably need the land that the 2 houses at the South stand end sit on.
The last 2 houses sold on Firpark St went for approx 260k each in 2018/2019
So even supposing you could convince the 2 householders to sell at that price (which they probably wouldn’t), when you add up demolition land clearance,fees etc you could be looking at up to 1m before you even start any redevelopment work.

Grimmy’s their best player
-
There are lots of reasons previously stated about why a move to Celtic is the best option for Davie like being close to home winning titles and better wages etc, but see tbh if I was a young talented Scottish player, the prospect of playing St Mirren, St Johnstone Livingston et al 4 times a season for the next 3/4 years would make me want to slit my wrists.
Id much rather try my hand in a different League playing against better teams in better stadiums and expand my horizons s bit.

See wee Lennon is up to his mind games again over on the Daily Rags
“We’re nowhere near signing any more players” he says.

There are a number of English teams and at least one German team monitoring his situation closely
Watch this space, Celtic will not have it all their own way
Davie is a bit of a home bird so I don’t think he’ll be venturing too far away.
Newcastle would be ideal

20% of those who tested positive and were contacted by tracers according to Govt figures although I believe it has now gone up to 23%
