Popular Post slimjim1690 4,534 Posted December 22, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted December 22, 2021 I'm not going back through this whole thread but something has occured to me that seems to have been lost in the argument and I'm not sure if it has already been mentioned, if it has admin can remove. What was the reason for the winter break in the first place?, as far as I can remember it was because of the harsher weather normally experienced in January/February causing many games to be postponed, so how is that going to help by bringing forward the winter break in milder weather and potentially having a fixture pile up due to postponed games in January or do they think that the weather will cooperate this time round , if they don't think there is a need for a winter break in January then why have a break at all IMO, it's like kids in the playground making up rules as they go along, or in kids thinking a way of cheating to gain an advantage. blaudrup, plymouthranger, Bad Robot and 4 others 7 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yip but it seems the corrupt cunts don’t know the up and coming forecast yet know no games will be cancelled come January and February.

The Specky Forum Organiser 69,709 Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 The Scottish Government has refused to issue clear scientific data for making the decision to lock fans out of watching live football this winter. First Minister Nicola Sturgeon announced the measures to be implemented on Boxing Day to limit numbers at football matches to just 500. Fans have been urged to stay at home and away from the stands in a bid to halt the rapid spread of the omicron virus which is rising by around 5,500 cases a day. But Scotland's national clinical director Jason Leitch admitted on BBC Radio Scotland on Wednesday the football restrictions aren't based on scientific modelling. He said: "you have to draw the line somewhere". "We’ve drawn it at a variety of points over the last little while. "It’s very difficult to choose a number, you can either choose zero, 10,000 or somewhere in between. "It’s a judgement, it’s of course based on trying to keep the risk as low as you possibly can but the alternative is just to close them down completely. "So you’re absolutely right: it’s just a judgement. There isn’t a particular public health route that takes you to 500 people. "Let’s remember the overall advice here, forget the numbers. The overall advice is to reduce your contact with other people as much as you can because that will reduce your risk of catching this disease until we get through this wave of this virus. "Then our advice will be to remove these measures as quickly as you possibly can. We don’t like them, we don’t want them, but we’re doing them to protect those who are going to die of this disease. That’s the blunt truth.." It comes as Ms Sturgeon said live sports would become "effectively spectator-free" for three weeks. The move cited as a way to cut down transmission of the Omicron variant and because “large events put an additional burden on emergency services”. The Scottish Daily Express asked the government for the data used to come to the decision to bring in the restrictions. A spokesperson directed us to the 'Omicron in Scotland Evidence Paper' cited alongside yesterday's hammer blow announcement for sports fans, However, the paper makes no mention of data linking sporting or outdoor events to a surge in virus numbers. It states: "Omicron is transmitting rapidly within Scotland and there is strong evidence that community transmission is widespread."
