Are these teams still flying in the night before games? That will surely still require some kind of adherance to restrictions in Scotland even if only staying for one night. Surely they wont fly the day of the games?

I think you’re spot on with that. This is a Czech side who had major issues 8/9 months ago with Covid, which says enough. For me they clearly have an issue with the social distancing and mitigations required to stay here.

On BBC website that Clarke has confirmed that they are 99% certain he brought it into camp. No symptoms and that he will be tested everyday and they he needs to return a couple of negative tests. Though they are not 100% sure on the Spanish guidance for isolation.

Well if they cancel every game over the next month due to one Covid case in a squad we'll still be playing it at Christmas. This isn't the first and wont be the last over the next month. Dutch goalie also missing tomorrow for the same reason. I would imagine the squad were tested last week before they flew and they again yesterday ahead of tomorrow. Hopefully just a false positive.

They wouldn't be travelling to Portugal if it wasn't safe. If there were any real serious concerns the game tomorrow would have been cancelled already.

So how long does he need to isolate for? 10 days or until he produces a negative?

I've been trying to search the FAQ's on the ticket portal but can't see anything obvious that gives you any detail on that.

Cheers. Good to know.

Its the time slot thing for me. I just cant see how they are going to get the guts of 2000 Scotland fans sticking to that.

How will you know what time your entry slot will be then? Will it be in the email?

Plus they are not allowed out the camp they are in, not even for a walk. It has everything they need, pitches, gym etc plus a 9 hole golf course. Its not as if they will be going on a jolly round the local bars like a certain Mr Duffy did 🤣

Squad fly to Spain today.

Can we close the topic down? Every time I see a new post it gives me the fear as I think there is bad news coming 🤣

There is no way UEFA will want it behind closed doors. They will move it to Northosh England somewhere. Newcastle or Liverpool somewhere.

Clarke has already said McTominay will play in midfield during the tournament.

Wonder if BBC or STV will make an effort to try and pick these up given they are pre-tournament games?

Suspect you could be right, suppose we will never know.

From what's being said this morning I would say the only one of that 5 that will defo be in the squad is Fleck. Palmer seems to be fighting with Patterson for the 2nd right back spot. I suspect Taylor will be sacrificed to make way for Forrest as given the injury doubt of Fraser, Forrest it cert I would say.

Was that not from Monday 17th?

Considine isn't going to go at the expense of Patterson. Papers saying its a choice between Considine and Cooper. No disrespect to Considine but it shouldn't even be a debate. Cooper potentially starts for me never mind being in the squad.

Sorry but how do you swap a digital ticket or have I missed something?

No, there is an option of 'seated together' via UEFA. Its all in the FAQ's that was in the email from Friday.

He gave Barry Ferguson his debut in September 98.

Reallu hope so, not good for the anxiety levels 😂

Thats what makes me wonder will UEFA get nervous and say bugger we’re not taking the chance. I really hope they dont but with UEFA they wont give a f*ck.
