Why aren’t more of the Scotland football team self isolating since one of their players has tested positive?

Also, why aren’t the members of the England team he came into contact with plus coaches and support stuff etc?

It really does feel like the rules are only applied to us normal folk

Because it’s all bollocks. It’s only the general public that have suffered through this shit show. We have never all been in this together and never will. Money talks.

@LouScot from bbc news:
While it can advise, it is understood PHE believes any decision to tell players from the England team to isolate will have been made by the FA.

The rules for professional sport have been different than those for the rest of us fir a very long time. It was decided that sport should come back for the sake of those watching at home not just the players…. I don’t understand why people are so surprised the rules are different, it’s been this way since the end of lockdown 1.

@frasersmummy

It's a very good question..whole classes are made to self isolate and yet.....

Honestly the Scottish govt have lost the plot

They never had the plot in the first place.

But completely agree that having 20k footie fans descending on London and the next day banning Scottish people from travelling to Manchester and vice versa has made Queen Nicola look bloody stupid.

She can fuck right off with her "just because you can doesn't mean you should" bollocks.
