Covid outbreak or not, going down to London for a big party wasn't exactly the smart move. Don't think anyone can deny that.

Maybe but that’s a different conversation. Spreading rumours about the pandemic is utterly unacceptable.

I’d imagine at least half the travelling fans were vaccinated, which would change the risk profile a lot.

I doubt even close to half were vaccinated. Plenty of under 25s who went and they have only been getting vaccinated for 10 days or so.

You know of 35 people who have tested positive for Covid since Friday night? A bit hard to believe, sorry

Correct - “know of” so many a friend of a friend. One group travelled on a coach together from Midlothian and were back Sat / tested Sun. The other flew and the two individuals I also know directly. Really have no reason to post this otherwise to be honest. Would love to be wrong, given how poorly some of them are feeling.

As I also stated, I am not convinced how accurate the results from an antigen test are.

EDIT - should also keep this in the context of how many people travelled. An absolute fraction. Not intending to cause dramas or throw digs like EI with the “well done to you all” - I was in London too and arrived home yesterday evening. Great time had, no regrets.

Probably not, but I had a great time and wouldn't change it.

I guess I can file it away along with - went on the pitch at Hampden in 2016.

Give it a week or so before you say it wouldn't change it. Hopefully you and those you were in close contact with are okay then.

That could apply to anyone who went out and watched the game in a pub on Friday.

Yes, of course it could. London clearly a bigger risk, though. Many more people, outside of local area, many more chances to spread it (multiple pubs, hotels, transport) etc.

Edinburgh has far higher rates per capita than London at the moment. Most of the fans in London were also outside for the majority of the day.

Fair enough, that at least gives a bit more context to what you said.

Hopefully this will turn it round a bit, I was in your boozer for the Czech and England game, had an absolutely fantastic time, food was amazing and your staff are exceptional, pass on my thanks to them, they are a credit to you

Which boozer is that? Sounds like somewhere I'd be happy to try.

Why? Most travelled last midweek. So, 5 days is quick? I'm sure it's 3 days before symptoms arrive.

Believe what you want. I won't apologise for telling truths.

What an ignorant lot. Staggering ignorance. Wow!

Your story has more holes in it than Turkey’s defence.

Maybe go easy on chucking around the insults eh? Not a good look.

Travel to London was allowed. So of course people were gonna go down.

Many things are allowed that are selfish, unsafe or both.

IF things were unsafe. Restrictions should still be in place for travelling.

Nor is your utter contempt or sheer ignorance. But hey, you'll know better eh.

Take it you haven't been touched by the misery of Covid?
