Not everyone who is not double jabbed is against vaccines for fucksake. Take my situation, I got fucked over by Covid early last year and have ongoing chest issues, I had to delay my first jab for 3 months until August and can get my second jab later today. Despite this, I'm still being told that technically I'm not allowed into the stadium for the Hibs game - I can't get an exemption letter, I'm not a 5G conspiracy nutter but hey, fuck off, you are not welcome as you are scum who is not double jabbed. Would it really be so difficult for the club to provide season ticket holders with a code to view the game on RTV? If they at least done that then I would be happy for them to resell my seat for that game and get some dosh. They don't give a fuck though. I sympathize mate but you said it yourself, the Club doesn't really give a fuck about the fans. Fans are just customers who make the club money and they know if they knock you back and you give up your seat then they know someone else will take it. The clubs being run purely as a business and the fans are just the cash cow. Which is why its a pipe dream to think the club will take anyone on for the fans. But that said I don't think they should in this situation anyway Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
five stars 1,606 Posted September 30, 2021 Share Posted September 30, 2021 There will be no long term suppression of covid. We could vaccinate everyone and their dogs 5 times over and it'll still be here. The vast majority of people will get infected at some point. Fortunately the vaccine will save many older and vunerable people's lives. But if you young and healthy the risks of a serious illness is tiny. Get on with your lives!

Someone who has tested negative in the last 24 hrs. Or B. Someone who's been double vaccinated. Scotland is the only country in Europe to bring in domestic vaccine passports where you're not allowed as an alternative to provide a negative test. Clearly the reason for bringing this in is not to reduce transmission but to force people (mainly young) to get a medical treatment they don't want. When the government is making these decisions about individuals medical choices we're moving into very scary territory. Whether you are vaccinated or not surely you can see this is a government over stepping it's power. Only the very few think they're overstepping their power. Most free thinking people are happy to have some semblance of normal life back, see the vaccine as being key to this and will participate in the vaccine programme to allow this to happen. We live in a democratic society, not a totalitarian state. If the people were to believe the government were overstepping their power, they would simply vote them out.

DMax399 3,631 Posted September 30, 2021 Share Posted September 30, 2021 If this really was required, then the Holyrood “government”. Should have put it in place before nightclubs, football grounds etc were allowed to welcome people back in. Not Elle’s and months later. The fact that infection number are dropping without a passport scheme would suggest it’s all a bit pointless. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s sheer incompetence that they’ve brought this in and you’re locked out due to personal circumstances and trying to get double jabbed. We then have supporters who will be medically exempt but NHS Scotland has no system in place yet so more people are locked out.

Millions of people all over the world are against this. There has been massive demonstrations in the UK, France, USA, Australia etc etc. (But you won't see much of it in the media) People are losing their jobs and civil liberties. Their position on the vaccine has hardened they will never get the vaccine now and may fall under the spell of the anti vac extremists. crazy bob swollenbaws 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prso's headband 34,990 Posted September 30, 2021 Share Posted September 30, 2021 It’s pretty odd that it will only really affect our fans and them on a weekly basis. For Hearts, Aberdeen and Hibs they’ll be turning up to their game against Ross County no needing proof because it’ll more than likely be under 10k but the week after if it’s a derby or Rangers or them are in town it’s show us your vaccine certificate please For the rest of the whole of Scottish football it doesn’t even matter which is just incredible really. Demand a vaccine passport for 500-1,000 people in a nightclub but doesn’t matter wae 9,999 people at the Motherwell game the same day.
