Playing lower league fodder will allow us to practise pumping the daylights out of Hibs in the Semi They haven’t had that much of a pre season so may well be interested in games. Time will tell. Avoiding England in general is wise, but at this time going there is no more dangerous than Paisley or many other places to play teams that aren’t testing is it?

There’s a pandemic In terms of preparing the players there will be no difference. I'm quite sure the club will take no unnecessary risks with the players health, whether that means testing opposition players or being more selective on who we play, but the squad will need to play a number of proper football matches, that is no different from any other season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes that was already mentioned thanks, the point still stands that they played us after the season started, although it’s unlikely that others may do the same now as those in Europe and Hibs won’t play us.

Rods Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 The SFA probably are hoping some of our best players get covid pre the semi final and cant play. They have tried everything else to prevent us getting up to speed for the Hibs game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
