It really was absolutely no surprise whatsover who was leading the call.

We have Celtic and Aberdeen away coming up.

Hmmm...

Other thing for me is...the rules and schedule were drawn up at the start of the season.....I imagine this would all have been done with a possible further lockdown high on the list of things that could happen
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I'll bet it probably wasn't.

Get that Stevie but no way could they have predicted the tyrant would pluck 500 out the air I mean 500 in a 60,000 seater wtf
----------------------------------------------------------------------
As you said yourself though mate, it's almost zero
If it's not cost effict for clubs to let that number in...don't let any in

This is all being done with the clubs interests at heart..the 500 shouldn't matter

What happened to #noexcuses

No idea. I'm not a celtic supporter. You're just coming across as a bit of a drama queen.

You will excuse me for questioning Celtic leading the charge on this.

Rangers away to Aberdeen
Rangers away to Celtic

Of course they want it delayed.

You're a fool if you think 'no crowds' is changing in 3 weeks though.

She loves absolute power and I guarantee you, you won't see full-houses at any ground for about 2 months minimum.

You are welcome to bookmark this.

Hoping to go to Portugal during this winter break

Though it's fair to say that was arranged long before Omicron reared its ugly face......

Be surprised if we get back to full houses before the end of the season..... imo.best case scenario is clubs running something like 50 % capacity by the end of the season

I do think it will get stopped now which is a real shame.

Basically thats the season down the pan if that happens. It will be back to fall outs, dodgy votes and dossiers with the usual suspects coming out the winners in it all.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
If the season gets settled in the pitch, how would it be down the pan.

Ideally with fans if at all possible, otherwise behind closed doors

The fixture schedule gets changed constantly for all sorts of reasons.

Been about 5 changes announced this week alone

That's the way I see it too.

Not sure why a club is going tonto about delaying it.

I've paid for my season ticket. I'd like to get to as many games as possible.

Same for anyone who has paid to see their team.

Sorry 'Filtered Man'. I guess you were just plainly boring hence why I blocked you. No offence.

It's 10 clubs.
Celtic weren't the first to raise it as anyone who is actually interested in Scottish football would know.

I don't much care what they do. The early break might allow a bit more lobbying about numbers attending and might, just might, be long enough to get data that says it's not as bad as first feared? I realise that is probably wishful thinking but Johnson did take the risk on opening up as early as he could and is likely to sail as close to the wind as possible. Nic is risk averse and a cow so it is unlikely here though Sunak will just not give her money and force her hand.

The numbers attending will have been set based on folk using public transport which is scheite - I'd bet CP has 500 car parking spaces alone! I realise the number is not going to get crazy but I could see an argument for 2-5000?
