Courier suggesting a 49 man strong squad photae taken the other day? Eejits.

Coaching team - self isolating
9 players - self isolating
Pay cuts
Pandemic - interviews done on Skype/zoom whatever other platform.

Why haven’t we heard from the coaching team to say they’re ok? Or is there something other than self isolating happening at Tannadice?

Probably too embarrassed as they have f*#ed up royally posing for a photo with near 50 people in close contact. Dunces.

Just f*cking wow.

The mind boggles. I’m no even in the UK but could guess having near 50 people all huddled together might no be the best idea just now. Not one person there thought “Hmmm, this might no be the best idea?”

Apart from so many other areas in training where they would all get close to each other in a week, it would need someone to have indicators of the virus in their system for it to transfer, and surely that would have been picked up in the testing that happens twice a week. Depending on when the photo was taken, there can be anything up to 4 tests carried out across the squad by the time we play Livi tomorrow,

Fair enough but that’s not the point is it? They’ve been told not to do something and they’ve went ahead and done it? People passing away left right and center and can’t have family attending funerals yet here’s near 50 people all in one photo. Numpties, simple as that.

Deniz
Neilson Edwards Connolly
Smith Harkes Jeando Sporle
McNulty Shanks Appere

Happy with that team. Benji is a big miss as he has been excellent but Deniz is decent and can do well

If Bolton out gives us reason to justify to Man City not playing him as I think Liam S is better

Even then i doubt very much if the gathering of 40 people is acceptable in terms of the covid rules regardless of the situation, even a funeral.

PLEASE NOTE:

All team photo/covid breach related threads/posts are now in here. We had three threads running, all discussing the same topic after two more were started last night. If you guys are going to start new threads, please make sure the topic isn't already being discussed elsewhere. Let's not clog the board up with multiple threads on the same topic.

Cheers.

Yes but ....

What do the authorities want here. They want football to be played. Give the people bread and circuses.

The players are sliding around, sweating next to each other and having physical contact in training.

The govt are happy to risk their health etc in that context but if they have a shower and then pose for a photo or have meal together they can get hammered.

Yes photo is stupid but this whole situation is very strange

Football clubs should be doing the bare minimum and following strict guidelines (like every other workplace) to get the job they are supposed to be doing done. Team photos, going out for meals etc are not essential to 'getting the job done'. It's fairly simple really.
