I see he's at it with BEK in the matchday thread, yet it's always everybody else's fault. :lol:

Too many shandies been consumed methinx? 

The five step ignore guide to BAWA

  1. Say you're going to stop responding and arguing with the person
  2. Keep responding and arguing with them a bit longer 
  3. Put the person on ignore (make sure you announce it to everyone) 
  4. Still follow almost every response to the person and bring the person up in completely unrelated topics, often bringing up long dead argument points you already said you’d stop arguing with them over 
  5. Take the person off ignore and repeat from step one

Seen an item on the ITN news about police bursting into a pub down souff.

At least 8 people all having a jolly time, 2 were a bit annoyed their game of pool was disturbed. 🤡🤡

One particular  party goer, an elderly gentleman, was quite willing to talk to the reporter, and he was quite adamant that this was no different than going shopping. :1eye

"Do you wear a mask when you go shopping" he was asked, "Oh yes" he says proudly pulling one from his pocket.

"But you, and no one, were wearing masks in the pub"..................................."Erm, yeah, so"............................ :lol:

This is the level of fcukwits the police are dealing with every day.

Good on them.

Hope they enjoyed their pints.

Quite why anyone would expect someone to wear a mask while trying to have a pint is beyond me.

No Andy...  it's because of clowns like you posting utter shite.  I know of one nugget just like yourself who was told to self isolate, after travelling in a car {front seat} with a driver who was coughing and spluttering who then tested positive next day.  On their first day of isolation they were picking up their own car and getting shown how the instruments etc worked, by a unsuspecting car technician. who could innocently now go home and spread this Mother F%%ker to members his own family.

That is the flaw that's happening you peanut brain asshole

Maybe this will make a few on here think before posting their bullshite trying to make out they are clever and better informed than scientists doctors and informed politicians... and realise how dangerous this virus is to a lot of people 

Now that we know that big Apes can be infected maybe the BIG APES on here will follow the guidelines set out by scientists to keep people safe... Wide Eyed Reaction GIF by MOODMAN

No sure if that's Shull or Sue

Went for a walk along the Clyde behind braehead. 7 buses sitting outside the entrance with only a couple of them with people on them. There were even a couple of double deckers among them. Was the same last week in Paisley so beg the questions, why so many buses since there are very few people apart from workers, out and about.

My local overground trains are still running EVERY 15 minutes into Liverpool Street, Tubelines are still about two minutes between trains...

They're maintaining a semblance of normality and I can see the point during busy periods (rush-hour etc) as we don't want crowds breathing on each other, but I have no real rationale or justification for such a seamless transport system still in operation.

The Scottish government are speaking quite positively about the slow signs that the current restrictions are starting to have an effect.

Can't see anything more restrictive rules coming worth talking about in but the current situation will remain for another 4-6 weeks IMO.

Public transport companies are getting paid quite a bit of money by government to operate full services, I would assume it's cheaper in long term than paying furlough and compensation for reducing services.

Going to be less buses on the road from Monday.

More restrictions likely to be announced tomorrow in Scotland. They are looking at (possibly among other points):

Click and collect

Aye, its  all they bastards outside the chippy causing us the problem.

Meanwhile, our FM and the PM refuse to consider proper quarantine measures for those coming into the country, despite a report saying it was foreign travel into the country that led to it getting a grip again.

The FM today was asked about that - oh yeah, some countries are doing quarantine hotels, that you would need to pay for  like Australia and New Zealand (who are both on top of this). Will we do that here? Nah, youre all right, why bother do whats working in other countries?

The government had a choice - stop all foreign travel, in and out, until the virus is gone, or restrict our domestic lives continually with constant lockdowns. They made the wrong choice.
