Just call the Administrators in now Budge. When's the next VAT bill due to be paid? May 7th?

Was announced yesterday that everyone's getting a 3 month tax holiday.

MacPhee and Levein were sharing the Sporting Director role so that's them getting half a salary each for doing half a job each, so still effectively on full pay for the amount they're doing. Before, they were effectively on double time.

They must have decided to take a risk for one sport or occasion that could result in others who have no interest in it being exposed. Makes no sense but gives them the dubious honour of having something in common with the UK's initial "strategy".

I like my horse racing but won't be heading over[emoji16]

People have no idea how decimated the NHS is down south for example.

Stay safe everyone

Well, just tell me 1 that went along with our behavioral based approach.

You need to read the exact facts on this. You'll find in-fact, that Scotland has stood still in the rankings at position 13. Not bad a for tiny small country though eh!

The actual figures go onto show that if the UK was split into country rankings, England would be way below the Scottish ranking.

Behind closed doors. They should have done the same on the mainland too.

In 4 days 250k people went racing, drank & dined in crowded bars & restaurants. Last Wednesday 4,000 fans travelled from the worst hot spot capital in Europe to Liverpool without restriction. For nearly 2 months our strategy was completely the opposite of every other nation. As a result we're now weeks behind in tackling this awful situation. He's an incompetent charlatan, who's completely out his depth & people will die unnecessarily because of his failings. All IMO of course but the comments above are all facts. Other than that I agree he's doing a good job! 😂

If you like facts you should check worldometers.info. It records cases and deaths for all countries around the world. I accept that the figures cannot be accurate but it gives an indication of what is happening. Of the countries that are able to be analysed the UK has the 10th highest number of cases and 7th highest number of deaths. However if you look at the number of cases/1m population the UK is one of the best performing countries. I suspect being an island has helped. For what its worth I don't think he has done a lot wrong to date and that applies to all the leaders of the devolved governments as well.

Good to see more in the media calling it...

What an interview - all over the place. Several times he literally contradicts himself within the space of a sentence. :greengrin

At last, following on from the Herald article, the truth!

Edit : I know, not often the Sun and truth in the same article!

Nice! He doesn’t miss them. About time the media tackled the other “big lie” in Scottish fitba - that Hearts are a well run club.

Spawny gits ate going to be saved by league reconstruction, you just know it.

I read that article. Nice to see somebody telling the truth, for once.




"More puzzling, though, is the fact that on the evidence offered throughout this season, few would have envisaged Hearts beating Rangers and getting to where they are in the domestic Cup tournament.

No-one with a financial background would have budgeted for Hearts going as deep into the tournament as they have done. The suggestion would seem to be that the Tynecastle side have been struggling to stay afloat even without the pandemic that has brought the world to a standstill."

Can't actually understand how the record are trying to make them out to be trailblazers!?!!

Funny how Ross County Chairman has indicated his players and staff will be paid.
