Templeton_Peck Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 This will be so deflating for the squad. So important now that Steve Clarke lifts them. Mctominay back in midfield and bring hendry or cooper back in ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Tierney went again, I'd be more worried Good point. But no way of sugar coating this, it’s a massive blow. Christ, we get the stuffing knocked out of us even without playing a bloody game!

Either that or Armstrong back in midfield but we don’t really have a like for like player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haggis_trap Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 FFS : of all our players.... heartbreak. Worryingly he must have had close contact with rest of the squad? Oddly the UEFA fantasy football app had him listed as "out" yesterday. Assumed it must be nonsense. Obviously not. Something odd : where did he get it?

Third Lanark Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 Again, I say, why us? We all know that Covid was a risk and we have had 2 players out. As far as I know only the Netherlands keeper was out. Are our medical teams and backroom staff less professional than other nations? That is what I am now wondering.

Fleck would be the change with the least knock-on effects for our shape. Need to keep McTominay at centre-half after that performance on Friday.

My thoughts go back to pre-tournament when players were allowed to visit family for a day or two. That is where my money would be on? Remember there is an incubation period after catching it so you will return negative results. If that is the case then it must be asked what checks did SFA do on those they were visiting?

weekevie04 Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 I was listening to Steven Reid on Sportsound on Saturday and he said the boys had a day off after the England game, and most of them had a game of golf organised. Wonder if Billy did something else? It's a huge blow, no doubt about it, but we can still push on from this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They forced a team to play on minutes after one of them almost died. They will give zero f**ks.   Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely, unfair to say 'tough luck, you're out'? Providing a team has a minimum of 13 players including a goalkeeper the game will go ahead as scheduled. If a team has less than 13 players available, the match will be rescheduled within the next 48 hours (I'm assuming this wouldn't happen due to quarantine regulations). If a match cannot be rescheduled, UEFA take a decision on the outcome; most likely to result in a 3-0 loss per a forfeited match. Regarding player replacements - only goalkeepers may be replaced during the tournament owing to serious injury/illness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
