luckydug Posted July 24, 2020 Share Posted July 24, 2020 58 minutes ago, Section Q said: It's ironic that English clubs can resume and complete a whole season without covid causing disruption and the we can't even manage the pre season warm ups. Let's hear it for the jaikies from Paisley.....! Like a lot of other things in life its down to money. The money swimming around in England means that the cost of testing is minimal compared to their income. Most of the clubs in Scotland are skint and are having to depend on handouts from fans and one particularly generous benefactor. This all leads to clubs cutting corners in procedures imo.

Sanitary arrangements and common sense with a bit of sacrifice, a lot of ordinary life could return. This outbreak should be easily handled by testing and tracking. I absolutely agree with you there mate, however were St Midden not one of the clubs who bragged about giving the James Anderson money to charity which was designed for Covid testing, and now they've been found out to be flouting the testing rules? If so, then the book should absolutely be thrown at them, and I hope Nicole Sturgeon suspends the start of the new season as a result.

But was that the reason or was it just St Mirren being negligent. Either way the club is either unable or unwilling to comply with covid safety requirements. Meanwhile a perfectly financial club who even offered to foot the bill for clubs who couldn't afford covid testing is fighting to stay in the league......boggling.......!

The Old Tolbooth Posted July 24, 2020 Share Posted July 24, 2020 Are St Mirren, the club who openly mocked us about being relegated, the club who effectively cheated their way to staying up because they still had both the Old Firm to play before the split, and also Tynecastle to come to after the split, are they actually taking some sort of moral high ground here when they've clearly not been following the testing guidelines? They truly are a scummy little, Celtic wannabe, tinpot, knuckle dragging, shower of scum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SectionDJambo Posted July 24, 2020 Share Posted July 24, 2020 Fans of other clubs had better get used to Hearts fans wishing the worst of luck on them. After the sheer spite and badness shown to us, during the same Covid-19 outbreak, they have no high horse to climb on. The bad feeling will last for years, and all because they’ve been enjoying sticking the boot into Hearts, Thistle and Stranraer, for months. Before they say it was their clubs, not them, show us where the fans of those clubs have made it clear they didn’t want the 3 clubs severely financially punished due to an arbitrary suspension of playing games. Many Hearts fans have made it clear that we would remember what those clubs have done to us, and it’s only human nature to expect bad wishes, by some Hearts fans, in return.

Guest ToqueJambo Posted July 24, 2020 Share Posted July 24, 2020 That "false positive" thing raises more questions than answers. Will they get tested a third time as a decider? How many "false negatives" are clubs getting? Have they gone for the cheap testing option? Totally predictable to see that it's all going tits up before the new season even starts though. And yet, fans of other clubs continue to support the SPFL in their handling of things since March and blame it all on Hearts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fans of pretty much every other club, especially St Mirren, have been kicking us for months now for doing exactly what their clubs would be doing in the same situation. A lot of the stuff about Budge in particular has been disgraceful. In summary, get it right up them!

Quite It was St Mirren fans who thought it would be a hoot to have a cardboard cutout of Ann Budge placed on their seats. Ann Budge being one of the few club owners/chairmen who have actually made an effort to find a fair and proper solution. She even managed to act as a go between for James Anderson to make his magnificent contribution to help clubs like St Mirren and their communities, despite the dinosaurs of the SPFL dragging their feet. And yet she has been the target for ignorance from the likes of St Mirren. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rory78 Posted July 25, 2020 Share Posted July 25, 2020 Why are the St Mirren players not having to self isolate after a member of the staff were found to have the virus??when i go to the pub we need to sign in so that we can be tracked in case someone else who has been in at the same time ends up getting it - if that happens I've got to isolate so why's it different for footballers!?

OmiyaHearts Posted July 26, 2020 Share Posted July 26, 2020 (edited) On 24/07/2020 at 11:02, OmiyaHearts said: Japan new cases cases are around 400-800 a day, much more than we're dealing with. Here's their J1 & J2 combined results for players & staff 10th - 19th July: 3,299 tests 3,299 negative It's not difficult to get it right. Or maybe it is difficult..... A J1 game was postponed today (Hiroshima v Nagoya) after 3 cases of COVID were confirmed in the Nagoya camp - 2 players and 1 non-playing member. It shows how serious some Leagues take it, while rumours Scottish clubs are allowing untested players to take part in friendlies. Even the most tightly regulated leauges are facing issues and it makes me wonder how we'll manage it here, when something similar inevitably occurs during the season. Edit: Additionally, but unrelated To COVID, the Shimizu v Oita game has just been suspended due to a 'severe rain & thunder storm' approaching the stadium. Shimizu were 2-0 up with half an hour left when abandoned and they've not managed a win in last six games. Talk about having no luck!
