A St Mirren player tested positive for Covid and now a Hamilton player is self-isolating after ”coming into close contact with a player from another club who has tested positive”, presumably the unnamed St Mirren player. Due to their age, footballers are largely immune to the worst dangers of Coronavirus, but you can see where the jeopardy lies for clubs.
If St Mirren are able to stop the disease spreading to the rest of the squad it is a testament to their safety procedures, but it is likely many others at the club were in close proximity to the player during the incubation period.
This is going to be a feature of the season; players will be required to isolate, some fixtures will be postponed. In Europe, it will be different. Our Europa League qualifier two weeks from today cannot be postponed by more than a couple of days. The final qualifier is three weeks today, between now and then every precaution must be taken to limit exposure for the players and backroom staff.
With pubs open for business to show Saturday’s Ross County – Celtic game, the need to run tests to learn what is achievable has never been greater. Cancelling controlled tests with no more than 300 spectators, where every piece of medical and scientific evidence assures us would all be entirely safe, would be classic bad government. We need to test practically every aspect of society for its health implications.

This is an interesting graphic showing just how geographically restricted support for independence was in the referendum.

Eintracht Frankfurt will have 6500 fans in for their first games
Andy Walker questioning Barkas shot stopping as he has never seen him make a save.Goes onto say,”Many Celtic fans not happy with the goals against Ferencvaros”Have to ask,”Were you at the game,caller”First goal,virtually unstoppable,brilliant goal,second through his legs,trying to spread.Now,if we want to question every goal,that goes through a Keepers legs,we would have to question every Keeper playing.Never heard anything last season,when Eddy calmly ran up to Mc Gregor,waited till he spread himself,then placed it through his legs into the net.Happens so often,not worth mentioning.
Unless you are a vile little runt,who while supporting the Hoops,keeps it well hidden from his paymasters.

_____
Frankfurt have a stadium with 51k attendance
But aye, it can’t be done in Scotland….
ERNIE LYNCH,
Not an interesting graphic at all.Far from it.Interesting if you showed a current graphic,instead of an historical one.Maybe the current one would not suit your agenda.
On the subject,do you think its right,that the BBC should ban our FM,from giving a Covid update 3 times a week,at the behest of a couple of Westminster nodding dogs?
TIMALOY 29,
Germany have had extensive testing in this field,including games.They are set up for it.Anyway,let the rest try it out first,see how it goes.Why the rush to get a paltry amount into our games.
Happy that we have a FM,that cares.Figures rising every day,now is not the time.
I wonder what today’s leader in Nash Bash Quick News will be?
Spent a very enjoyable 4 days in Hamburg last weekend with the Edinburgh crew. We did a U-Bahn pub crawl on the U3. We got off at one station and basically in loud Scottish voices, whilst pointing across the road, said “Look there’s a pub over there.” Bearing in mind not one of us was wearing colours we were greeted at the bottom of the U-Bahn steps by a young man “Ah, Celtic, Glasgow.” You couldn’t make it up. Must have been the 5 ‘good-looking’ drunken Scotsmen that gave it away. 😉😂

It’s a graphic from the most up to date referendum.
Sturgeon seems reluctant to move for another one.
No one is banning Sturgeon from giving updates on anything.
But we’re not yet at the stage where she can command the BBC to broadcast her updates live.
How has the news been received in Turkey? Are the populace distraught?
On wingers,best one I have seen,is Alberth Ellis,of Houston Dynamo.Honduran,friend of Izzy,who would love to come to Celtic.Very affordable.Have a wee look on You Tube.Boy is dynamite.

The BBC are not banning anything — Not-Jacinda can still stand up and talk / and talk / and talk as before.
Just a case that they won’t be putting it out live.
They will still cover it just not live in every boring / droning detail.
Consequently your point is wrong.
new article posted.
TB @ the edge of Europe
I take it you are on the Sean Connery wing of the Nats.
You love Scotland so much that you don’t stay here.
Interesting and then some.
Does Turkish TV show Not-Jacinda live every lunchtime?
If not –why not and how do you survive?

The Celtic Board moved heaven and earth to get 800 Rangers supporters into Celtic Park.
If the will is there…….it can be done
ERNIE LYNCH,
So,how would you put,being taken off the air,at the behest of a few opposition MPs.Under orders from their betters in London.The last poll I saw,had the SNP running at 64 %..All the polls seem to be running around the same.You don’t call it a ban,I do,and only an idiot,would not know the reason for it.Not you,of course,I am pretty sure you DO know the reason.We have the National crisis of a No Deal Brexit,looming ever larger,and you still witter on about the SNP.
CELTIC MAC,
really can’t see any comparison,sorry.
BIG Jimmy Regarding triple by pass ,I had it done January 2019,I don’t want to comment on it here ,if you have a email address I would gladly tell you how everything went for me,I have a email but I don’t know if it’s wise to put it on here,hopefully somebody can come on and say if it’s right or not to put on my email address.
Third last!
Still a podium.
Not quite, Ernie 😉
