Didn’t realise until today that Alfie will have to quarantine in a hotel for 10 days upon arrival in Scotland because he’s coming from a red list country. No exemptions for footballers. 

Not sure if he is getting time off over there before travelling back but if so it would put his availability for the opening game of the season and possibly the first UCL qualifier in doubt. Hopefully he stays fit but his lack of game time a bit of a concern.

Fuck me. That's brutal. Especially when he is just sitting over there getting fuck all game time.

If he's getting no game time anyway, you would think common sense would come in to play here?

Our first qualifier is the 3/4 August is it not?

Colombia will get knocked out Wednesday surely he’ll be back in the UK Friday at the latest.

Its not the best but also not as bad as we’re still early July.

Also that’s only if he gets a direct flight from Brazil to the UK. There’s ways around it if you can fly into Green/Amber territories before it.

Crazy considering Colombia have been struggling to score goals. 

If they lose tomorrow night and he gets a weeks holiday that would be 13th July.

Could be back for a friendly on 24th. 

Although would image he would prefer to return to Scotland asap.

This!

3/4 place play off is on Saturday. Gerrard spoke in his RTV piece about giving him some time off as well.

Aye mate, he’s no had enough time off so far by playing 9 mins in 5 games. No even on the bench for some of these games as well. Spent more energy with his charities imo out there. Plus side Alfie comes back fresh.

One good thing is at least he’s in a training camp which should prevent him piling on the weight and hopefully he won’t be late back this time.

Aye cause he fucked us over last season...

Only Mongos thought he was fat

No idea about the 3/4 game. Is a worry then if not up to speed and Roofe suspended.

Do you know when Sakala is able to join up with the squad?

He'll probably get 2 weeks off after the tournament finishes which is normally standard for players playing in these games, so the fact he'd need to quarantine won't matter much. Patterson, Kamara, Helander and Borna will be given the same time off as well depending on which stage they went out.

I would have thought Patterson, Kamara & McLaughlin will be due back any day now. Hopefully.
