...having scrutinised ad nauseum the Covid v Sport Crisis to a concerted degree, at this juncture I posit the most concerning situation we have is one with Jason Leitch and the Scottish government.
It is unclear who is advising who and where their school of 'experts' succouring their information comes from and more importantly its veracity.
More and more I am convinced the science they receive is NOT what they relay, nor is it being advised to us.
Leitch, by his own mouth admitted on radio last Saturday he had previously quoted certain 'facts' at the beginning of this contagion that are now regarded by himself... as wrong and very badly so.
Ok.......so who hasn't got it wrong?......you may ask.
Well that's understandable but not acceptable because these 'guesses of his' and subsequent decisions have punished and unnecessarily destroyed businesses, disrupting lives, compounding countless situations and increased impoverishment amongst the least well off of us.
Suppositions, conjectures and guesses are his mantra that fail and frustrate everyone.
This man is wallowing in his 'celebrity' status, a narcissistic egotist applying his despotic and tyrannical regimen, we glibly accept almost submissively.
Leitch loves every moment of his 15 minutes of fame, though even Andy Warhol would suggest its enough from his some 8 months as Scottish Health advisor..... Covid or not and more likely have concluded it as 'infamy' by now.
Valerie Solanas may even have re-directed her Berreta had she knew about what we are are putting up with over here, leaving Warhol to enjoy a longer life.
I am not saying constraints aren't necessary, of course they undoubtedly are but we can be dealing with it in an entirely differently way. It is doubly censuring when his stewardship is affecting every aspect of our lives... to our detriment.
He sees an easy yielding in us, that for me is blatantly transparent and he will continue to Lord it over us until this Covid blight is gone.
God knows what he'll do when this is all over and he is put back in his box to disappear for another 20 years, either till the Chinese cause another epidemic just like they have the previous three or he retires completely.... benefiting us all.
This man is an unprecedented failure bordering on an embarrassment making flighty and kneejerk decisions that are ill conceived and badly proffered to the general community.
Unluckily, I was invited by my mrs to attend a meeting he conducted in Ninewells Hospital in late May. About 30 of us listened to him and his statements where he stuttered and jabbered through an impromptu, ill-prepared and unnecessary gathering.
The announcements and assertions he made then are since rubbished and cringe-worthy now.
He noticed when I, in disagreement occasionally shook my head slightly and though not being the only one, had his eye on me for the remaining 20 minutes, albeit fleetingly.
The question of sport came up twice and was kicked out of the park ....unanswered twice!
It was evident he was unnerved and knew himself as obfuscating and suddenly began fidgeting.
Obscure answers to questions, obviously hating every second of his unqualified tenure, he ended the meeting looking abject and knowing he had lost the 'changing room' ...... dismally so.
His departure was unceremonious, adding to the fact he knew it was an undignified one and waste of a day.
I won't bother with the general consensus among us, I think you can guess.
Since this meeting he has conveniently ignored several transgressions by Sevco Rangers regarding Covid, putting lives of countless innocent people at risk yet punishing Celtic unfairly and at every opportunity.
He has distinguished himself as an undisputed and high profile cretin un-befitting of his station.
He is easily read and doesn't have a modicum or slightest clue about the proper way to direct us and sport as the main topic..... and this is our NHS spokesperson!!
He is playing the easy option and doesn't care a jot about the outcome of sport despite many alternatives open to him.
Tight, stringent and austere measures with fans distancing, masks at all times are possible and are working successfully in many countries around the world with very few reports of Covid spreading.
It is unfortunate to have this global pandemic but in Scotland its doubly regrettable with Leitch 'leading' the way.
This is how he looks to many of us and the evidence is becoming more unarguable daily.
