Cambridge are getting in 2,500 in an 8,000 seater stadium. Motherwell and us would’ve been the perfect scenario to hold a test event this weekend. Motherwell holds 13,000, could easily be looking at 5,000 at least. Instead it’s held at Aberdeen, a 20,000 seater stadium with 300 people in it lol England are now limiting social gathering to 6, both indoors and outdoors. Id be amazed if Spurs get anything near half capacity next month. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So what we'd be doing until then is demonstrating whatever measures the government need met are met to safely bring folk into the stadium, in ever increasing numbers. To think we'll get fans in without meeting their requirements is nonsense. Much of the whole covid stuff is bollocks, but theres no way stadia are getting thousands and thousands in any time soon.

Bill8972 479 Posted September 9, 2020 Author Share Posted September 9, 2020 Fans to return to Spanish stadiums once vaccine available next year, La Liga boss says.

Agreed I'm not really talking about Covid here, but I think your post sums up the mentality of people. It's quite a sad state of affairs imo Throughout the years people have wondered what would kill the human race, a meteor a new iceage, some kind of disease or whatever. I think stupidity will be the one that ends it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Randall said: "The nurse who took the call said it was hardly an accident and emergency problem, to which the woman replied: 'If we don't cook it properly, we're going to get food poisoning and we'll have to come in - then it'll be your problem'. "We told her to give it 20 minutes per pound plus twenty minutes on top and she seemed satisfied."" Just reminded me of a story Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can’t see another lockdown like we had late March ,individual areas will have their own restrictions like those already happening . As for blown out of proportion that’s for each persons opinion ,Now we are past the first peak and things a lot more stable of course it looks like an over reaction to go in full lockdown like we did ,but at the time so much less was known about the virus than we know now . As for cancer etc ,over the next few years we will see if there is a spike in deaths caused by lockdown .i suppose then that will be the time to judge it better Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for cancer, many have already died and will, with millions of appointments to catch up on. The we have seasonal flu upon us plus Covid, I can see them suffer further as the resources are just not there. Covid is not the problem, but underfunding and mismanagement of resources. We are being fed bullshit by government. A national scandal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SeparateEntityMyArse 53,272 Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 We could go round and round in circles re how covid has been handled. It really doesn't matter. What does is that the scottish government are in charge and if we want fans back in then we ask how high when they tell us to jump. If they deem trials of 300 fans are needed then thats how it'll be. We need every club, every ground, and yes every fan not to fuck this up for us. Even then I'd say given the wider picture its against the odds most of us will see a game this year.

RangersMedia 35,961 Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 Not interested in going if we have to wear a facemask the whole time tbh Not because I'm against masks (that would be a fucking dumb position) but I hate them and really can't sit for that long with a mask on. Seems stupid you don't have to wear a mask inside an office or pub or whatever but in a vast, outdoor space where you are socially distanced much further than 2m from another person you do.
