boy"z" Posted March 24, 2021 Report Share Posted March 24, 2021 I imagine they might be thinking that if the tiers come back into place from the 26th we will be in tier 2 where contact sports can start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye that’s it there is an update on the 5th April which could confirm and earlier start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All of mainland Scotland is going into level 3 on the 26th. Sturgeons already confirmed this. Unless it may possibly change then who knows. Only way I can see any football tourney starting that early is by the SFA asking government for outdoor sport to be allowed to continue in level 3. I mean after all we’re still in level 4 now and have been allowed to train. Wait and see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack&Victor Posted March 24, 2021 Report Share Posted March 24, 2021 Would it not be best to leave the dates as they are and continue to hope that the virus levels and all the rest of it continue to fall at the rate they are. This may help to open up options like use of changing facilities etc etc to be brought forward. Everyone is delighted at the prospect of football coming back, but let’s not get to carried away and try to push our luck. Let’s ease back in with some contact training in accordance with the guidelines and then promote towards some friendlies for 2-3 weeks and then the tournament at the end of May. Let’s be honest, the tournament is surely going to be used as a pre season preparation programme anyway??

Just go from there. Bombscare 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The early start is based on the restrictions getting brought forward similar to when non contact training was allowed but wasn’t planned that early. Eveyone needs to wait till April 5th to have any idea of dates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Outdoor sport as you say was one of the few things brought forward this month, so see what April has in store. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
