When did you start talking sense!!?? I agree with you to be honest. 600 was a bit of a joke and we haven't played any games with fans this season so far. Folk are getting all worked up because they want to be offended at something. Get back to normality for next season and I'll be happy. 3rd in the league and in a cup final, don't want any if the jinx fans in anyway!!

My concern is that this shambles is setting the tone for the months ahead.

There should be full stadiums at the start for the season but there clearly won’t be.

They will be on about some new variant then and we’ll be discussing what pitiful amounts we are allowed in stadiums.

The over cautious approach showing a real lack of willingness to get people back into stadiums in decent numbers is a real concern for me.

This attitude from the Scottish Government isn’t changing any time soon.

Game now behind closed doors.

I wonder when UEFA will be told there is a doubt about fans attending euros at Hampden 🙄

[WhileTheChief..]

All that fuss about nothing then!

Unlikely they will move it as the SFA blazers who have to be there will probably all live in Glasgow and cannot travel out under level 3 rules and the chances of getting another venue at this stage is probably a non starter

You’re allowed to go anywhere for work.

Should have gone for the Pittodrie option. Would have been allowed more than 600 too.

I think it is immaterial now as, according to the Scottish Government's own guidelines, there will now be no fans present should Glasgow remain in Level 3.

And what will will happen to theEuro’s if Glasgow is still in level 3. ?

Didn't realise they'd said we could use their place.

That’s the SFA/SG problem

Hopefully this action fixes the problem

[Helensburghhibs]

Without turning this too much into a holy ground thread , I now think the govt are at it. 4 or 5 weeks ago the actions of rangers supporters led to football fans being painted as the reason we would get another spike, it turns out that 1. It didn't happen or 2. Spikes aren't that important in the lead up to an election. Now that's done and dusted and lockdown has been eased a bit spikes and variants are back on the agenda. I suggest we do whatever texas are doing..... which isn't much but theyanaged 70k at the boxing last week and no piles of infected bodies anywhere in sight. Hospitality,football and socialising in general seem to be the favourite targets here.

Yup - 21,000 at Wembley tomorrow !

Great stadium and closer than Aberdeen.

Scotland needs to get its act together- we should be having stadiums busy again for the start of the season - maybe not completely full but more than a few hundred etc.

I don’t think we asked, that’s my point.

Utter garbage. There are good reasons for fans to question what's going on in Scotland given the broad range of "test" activities going on in England. The lack of explanation by the SFA or SG hasn't helped and only added to the speculation and confusion.

Anyway, you'll be happy. Just announced, no fans at Hampden

Hardly surprising that the biggest non-essential activities causing mass gatherings are the favourite targets when tackling a pandemic though?

I would feel more safe getting in my own car - driving to the game then parking at Hampden and sitting outside watching a game of football than going to my local supermarket / cafe / hairdressers etc.

Shame they don’t trust people to act responsibly.

Really? Allowing indoor crowds at cinemas and non essential shopping centres but no crowds outdoors at football makes no sense to me

Level 3 status means ... Stadia must be closed to spectators.

So no idea what the "contingency plans" are for getting 600 folk into Hampden. No one from L2 can travel into L3 except for emergency and those in L3 (Glasgow) should not be congregating.

Maybe they're going to allow 600 Huns (West of Scotland FC) in to celebrate, given they'll be doing that on the streets anyway

Your last point is more galling now it’s been confirmed no Fans will be allowed into Hampden

Their route map out of this pandemic is a shambles and shows no intent to get peoples lives back to normal again.

I’ve always voted for them and I always will until we get independence but they’ve completely lost the plot here.

[Diclonius]

The game must be played at our sacred national glorified racing track. No other stadium will suffice. Thus decrees the SFA.

[Carheenlea]

Professor Jason Leitch will be loving this.

[Eyrie]

I'd like to be there, but as someone who was shielding this time last year it's not sensible for me to risk it so I won't be applying for the ballot.

Mind you, it looks like there won't be a ballot if fans can't go.

What are we allowed at level 0 again? A dozen fans maybe? Maybe allow us 20 if we get down on our knees and really beg like good boys.

Hibs and st Johnstone should just tell them to shove their tickets up their arse.

What do BadBoys have to do lol
The whole thing is doing my head in now
We are now so risk averse Yet We keep being told me need to learn how to live with Covid
My nine month old granddaughter had to get a Covid test the other day and everyone self isolate She had a rash and needed a cream my daughter was asked if her daughter had a cough She said yes but o ly ever five hours or so Wasn’t a persistent cough and she wasn’t worried about it
But no o e would see the wee one until she got a negative Covid test
Common sense has gone out the windae
