thesaint Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 Sitting watching Holland v Latvia.5000 crowd,including groups of maybe 50 or 60 standing drinking and jumping around.Now,we keep getting told how bad things are in Europe,and they are in the middle of a third wave.Also,we have vaccinated about 5 times the amount that they have.Now,how is that possible that they have 5000 in the middle of a third wave,and we can't commit to having fans 10 weeks down the line,when we will have vaccinated all adults.Would appreciate it if anybody could explain it to me.

McTeeko Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 (edited) The 5000 weren’t even spread out as you’d imagine. There was large sections of groups. Only a handful of masks overall, and none in this pic..... Edited March 27, 2021 by McTeeko Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McTeeko Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 It fucked me off a wee bit when we watched that Dutch game to be honest. We were ‘at’ the Edinburgh City game today. This was our view..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes.I was raging as well.Every time they showed the crowd my blood started to boil.As I said,all we are getting shoved down our throats ,is how serious it is in europe.The last thing you would think they would be bothered about if it was that bad,would be letting 5000 not even socially distanced fans into a football match.There is something not right here if Scotland who are in a much better position regarding vaccines and the amount of new cases can't make a commitment for fans at the euros ten weeks away.It doesn't add up.

Stuart87 Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 And things here are going to be even better in 2.5 months time on 14th June. I see no reason why there shouldn’t be a full stadium at our matches by this time but we’ll be told how lucky we are to have 5-10,000.

bossman4 Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 I watched the Russia/Slovakia game yesterday and it had even more in it. Yes I know its Russia and all 😂 but still was great to see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wanderer Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 (edited) Danish FA have said they are going to allow a minimum of 25% in for Euro games in Copenhagen (which probably has a bigger bonus for our game in September) and Romanian Fa are talking about 30%.
