Changed in Sept when cases started to dropSeems strange that they’d change testing to once a week with the rise and cases and the scrutiny the game is under.
Pretty sure the testing regime has always been that the players have to be tested within 168 hours of the match, with the results reported to the SPFL within the 48 hours before the match.I thought it was 72hrs before a game? Or was that just for lower league teams playing in the cup?
I have no idea why I had 72hrs in my head. It seems more sensible than 168hours though.Pretty sure the testing regime has always been that the players have to be tested within 168 hours of the match, with the results reported to the SPFL within the 48 hours before the match.

I was shocked when a Google search came up with that. Must admit I thought same as you. Once a week is never enough IMHO.I have no idea why I had 72hrs in my head. It seems more sensible than 168hours though.
For us? Once a week, for them? Once a day! Rancid!It was moved from two tests a week to one from what info I can gather.
SO does that mean Selic don't get re-tested until this Saturday? Is the before their game or do they stall it until after?
Some sound logic in there. I like it.Their last lot of tests were done last Friday, so the 168hrs (7 days) will have expired before they play Livi on Saturday and they will need to be tested again.
Since they refused to be tested prior to the Hibs game, their tests would likely take place Tues, Wed or today, in order to ensure that they are back and results submitted before Saturday's game.
Given the events of the past 2 weeks and the fact that any positive tests would have an impact on team selection/training, I would imagine that they would want their tests done as early as possible, which would mean they would likely have been done on Tuesday.
In which case, they should have got their results back yesterday or today. If they were all negative, I would have imagined that they would have been quick to shout it out to the world, but no announcements raises my suspicions that they have had another positive test.
Cheers, but recent experiences suggest that they will take the opposite approach to anything logical, so I will probably be completely wrong.Some sound logic in there. I like it.

Possible, but highly unlikely I would suggest.They could have done tests on sunday before hibs game - to clear the 168 hrs for livi game
