I am looking at this, trying to figure out what it means in regards to symptomatic transfer - https://www.hopkinsguides.com/hopkins/view/Johns_Hopkins_ABX_Guide/540747/all/Coronavirus_COVID_19__SARS_CoV_2_ As far as I can see, all that says is, that it is most likely to be transferred through respiratory routes and contact with contaminated surfaces. I'm not sure what you are looking for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaundy Posted March 11, 2020 Author Share Posted March 11, 2020 Thought I read a few days ago that Israel wants the game postponed due to affect on their squad already. If that’s what they want then I think that’s what’ll happen . o/t someone linked to the world o meter site . I really like that for a big picture take on population. That’s 110,000 died today and it’s no yet t time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barney Rubble Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 The more you think about this, It looks as though UEFA are praying for the situation to calm down so they do not have to take a decision until they are forced into a situation where they can no longer NOT take a decision. We'll reach that point on 19th March in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catchart Circle Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 9 hours ago, dohadeer said: I’m not sure how accurate that is, given that so many events in other countries have been cancelled/held ‘behind-closed-doors.’ I suppose, like you say, if that we’re true, it’s the public transport, rather than the event itself that causes the problem. In which case, a bit of a waste of time the professor making the point about outdoor gatherings. Strange one. Last time I was at Ibrox for a game was V Georgia in 2014. Thought I was being clever getting the tube a full hour ahead of kick off but we were packed in like sardines for the whole journey. It must be like this for most Rangers games so the Underground on Saturday will be a perfect for spreading all sorts of germs. Somehow I can't see the authorities closing the underground ahead of Sundays Old Firm match. But is not jut the transport. Ahead of the San Marino game at Hampden Montfords was packed and there was only a crowd of around 20,000 at the game. The Beechwood would have been exactly the same.

Shaundy Posted March 12, 2020 Author Share Posted March 12, 2020 Sorry? Not blaming you . Just noting that over 150,000 people died yesterday. near 300,000 were born mind you. Loads more numbers on Worldometer site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaundy Posted March 12, 2020 Author Share Posted March 12, 2020 (edited) Yeah . I understood that . I did say it was o/t but daily deaths and births does have some relevance when discussing a global pandemic I think. Also that site does seem to have the most accurate up to date figures regards corona virus. An all time low seems quite understandable given we have never been so late in the day according to the doomsday clock. It’s why this thread is concerned with a game of football as a distraction. if as forecast there will be a billion covid whatever cases within 80 days it still won’t match the 20% of the world’s population that the Spanish flu had a hundred years ago. But the mortality rate and susceptible groups are different. Just heard Trump announcing the USA plans for Friday 13th anaw. If you don’t want more depressing news it should be avoided. back on thread . Are you still expecting a game of football to have been played by our national team in a fortnight? I don’t now. Edited March 12, 2020 by Shaundy A fortnight + 1 day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think it is but having a ticket wonder when the decision might or must be made. So has there been an announcement regarding this yet? Off, closed doors, what?!

StirlingScott Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 (edited) In addition to our advice to cancel mass gatherings, Uefa are holding a meeting on Tuesday to discuss Euro2020.

StirlingScott Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 New BBC News Sport article saying Euro2020 is set to be cancelled and probably played next summer. My guess: That could mean an option to provisionally delay play offs until a later date - late this year or early next year. ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveHFC Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 “I would like to reassure all Scotland fans who have purchased either tickets or hospitality packages for the match against Israel that those tickets will still be valid for the rescheduled fixture, when the date is confirmed. If supporters are unable to attend the rescheduled fixture then the face value of their tickets and packages will be refunded. Further information on tickets will be communicated to existing buyers in early course Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terry Munro Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 (edited) June was never going to be realistic for this one.Better to schedule it for March 2021 which would still be the same time frame of 3 months before the tournament begins Edited April 1, 2020 by Terry Munro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
