    One player has proved pos for COVID and two are self isolating.
    Scotland meant to be playing Israel tomorrow.
    Only last night Forfar had to scratch from the league cup after a player proved pos and Killie also had 3 players out v Falkirk
    Interesting to see if the Scotland game goes ahead.
    Terrible situation throughout the country

    What do you think is creating the increase? Scotland up until students went back seemed to be coping well.

    Imo mate it was the students. All coming from all parts of the UK and doing what students do.
    Of course we do have our fair share of those who just cannot follow the rules.

    I can't imagine Scotland playing whilst the boozers are shut.....far too traumatic an event to suffer sober. Lol

    Well Nicola has just come down with more restrictions for the pubs.
    I’m sorry but I don’t understand your COVID does not like daylight comment.

    I was taking the pxss - Hasnt your Nicky banned cafe's from being open after dark
    Not studied the rules but isnt it something like you can eat inside a cafe/restaurant if it doesnt have an alcohol licence until 6pm but not after (if it has a licence it cant serve you inside - logically as the presence of alcohol in a building makes Covid so much more infectious)
    Also Trump was famously banging on about light being a cure

    Haha ok. Sorry for being a bit slow.
    The new rules all seem a bit muddled. But won’t bother me for the next fortnight. I’ve only been in the pub 4 or 5 times since March.
    It’s not ideal but this is a killer disease to some.

    although this blog will burn the eyes of some who see Nippy as some kind of political genius its a totally different insight into the SNP.

    Bad news all round. This virus isn't going away anytime soon is it?

    Sat on a pub in Scotland tonight, fair to say it’s busy for a Wednesday night.

    The point of my post was to talk about what COVID will do to the future of football.
    Like pubs many clubs could very easily go to the wall

    I know, if things don't pick up soon the towns and cities will be very bleak and deserted.

    "Leveling up the North" - by shutting everything in the north down.

    I had to google Archerfield just to see where it was. So you guys are in the full lock down zone so maybe the folks all having a drink before your restrictions begin.
    Although only being able to drink outside here in Dundee is not exactly ideal.
    I think most pubs will just not open.

    I'm surprised it's the uni's that are causing a spike up in Scotland they don't need no education north of the wall. Sturgeon's thoughtfulness has them in control. There won't be any dark sarcasm from me. I'm just another brick in the wall.
