Gonzo79 13,581 Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 According to figures, the implementation of passport requirements has had a minimal impact on vaccine uptake (if you read football forums you'll be aware that many fans were getting into matches with fakes) and the latest restrictions now mean that the vaccinated can't get into matches anyway. The vaccine doesn't seem to be having much impact on the spread lf omicron either. Will these restrictions be curtailed after three weeks - I have my doubts. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankie 8,145 Posted December 22, 2021 Author Share Posted December 22, 2021 Realise there is somewhat of an overlap here but can we keep the political/social commentary stuff separate from the football chat. We all have our opinions on vaccinations, boosters, etc but these can be saved for the Lounge. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Make of that what you will, but assuming SKY will have a say especially with the prospect of additional viewing figure for the OF game. Didn't sky agree to lose the games of 2019/2020 to award half a league title to Celtic then strangely agree a long term TV deal with the SPFL at extremely agreeable terms to SKY? Anything is possible. Sky are not our friends. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything is possible. Sky are not our friends. Sky agreed to take the payment out of future payments over 5 years. It cost us a fortune. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gonzo79 13,581 Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 Hopefully this sort of thing will prompt more Bears to take the Gonzo route and stop going to away matches (excluding cup matches against lower league opposition). 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CammyF 6,775 Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 Still dignified silence from the board....... Hearing we'll be able to rearrange any rearranged games if our players are still involved in African Nations. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It cost us a fortune. Exactly, everyone lost out on TV revenue so Celtic could be awarded a title. And the other clubs voted this madness through. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
