Aberdeen: Eight who broke lockdown rules issue apology "We, as a small group of players, made a huge error of judgement last weekend by thinking it was OK to visit a city centre venue together.
None of us could have foreseen the escalation of Covid-19 cases in the Grampian area."

Oh yes they could you thick fuckers, that's why you were in lockdown - I hope the SFA fine Aberdeen and the latter kick them out on their arse One funny bit is the juxtaposition of Nicola Sturgeon speaking in stern tones, almost expressionless, and the deaf signer who has eyes like saucers, who appears to be signing 'what the fuck were they thinking, the wazzocks; after all the official stuff is done, they should get a good kicking and their bollocks smacked between bricks so that they can't breed.'

Tbf Chumbles, the pissup in question took place 4 days before the imposition of the Aberdeen lockdown. Apart from that, can't disagree...

You know what you need to do. Don't make me tell you again. Which would you prefer to see first: Syndicate or Desert Strike? Belay that: Desert Strike not currently working.

Yes, buy I thought they broke the rules imposed on footballers to allow matches to go ahead with minimised risks? Good Morning Everyone! Oh yeah, they totally broke whatever guidelines had been agreed for footballers by the league and the govt. Plus there were eight of them, which breaks the rules applying to the general population. Poor show all round. I was just nit picking, as that's the kind of hollow-souled arsehole I am. Mostly experienced players too. One of them is vice chairman of the PFA. Dickheads.

The list of the Aberdeen places with confirmed case visitors looks like quite a bar crawl. I mean as it's only just after lockdown hit one pub and then head home and don't bar hop?

There were photos of folk in Aberdeen yesterday queueing up to get ice cream cones. No distancing. Wild.

The pub crawl aspect is the heart of the problem. Plus in the place at the centre of it (Soul Bar), there are photos suggesting the management made no effort to enforce social distancing/ table service / control numbers etc.. Looks like a normal Saturday night pile up. By all accounts the other publicans of the city are none too impressed..

A mate of mine used to live in Aberdeen. Said the whole place was grey. Buildings, sky, food, people.

That is indeed the standard cliche - equivalent of saying Liverpool is full of thieves in tracksuits, or London is full of incomprehensible cockneys munching on jellied eels. In other words, 100% true.

I have only been to Aberdeen once. It brightened up to slate grey skies mid afternoon.

Aberdeen and Dundee are the top 2 sunniest cities in Scotland - so just imagine what the rest of the fucking place is like.

I've been to Ayr in the rain, and Perth.
I've only seen Edinburgh on sunny days. Also Falkirk. Tho a misty rain would have made Falkirk look nicer.

A mate of mine used to live in Aberdeen. Said the whole place was grey. Buildings, sky, food, people. Can confirm. Tales of the mystical sky fire orb reached us occasionally, but I didn't believe them until I moved far, far away. There are only 2 industries in Aberdeen. The guys offshore who rip oil from the sea, and the strippers onshore who rub it on themselves.

The venue was nice, but everything else about the city was grey. After consuming a staggering amount of red wine at the wedding reception, I duly added some colour by throwing up on the Travellodge carpet where we were staying.

The only way to get through living in Aberdeen for four years was drinking. I guess if soul was the best place to end the night things haven't got any better in the last 5 years, drink anyone?

At what time do children have to go to bed? Asking for a potential murderer.
<edit> also not all of Scotland is suicidely grim. I had the best curry I have ever eaten in Inverness - very fond memories.
