I have a sneaky suspicion we'll be in some form of lockdown till Spring.

Indeed, but ‘professional’ ha ha football teams are traversing Scotland, including lower pyramid teams including un-salaried University teams comprising players from all over the place, presumably travelling my bus


They aren't travelling by bus and are subject to strict social distancing measures off the field.
There are no university teams in national leagues and the LL is a professional league whether or not two teams are amateur. Same as the SPFL is pro regardless of the status of Queens Park.

Possibility the travel rules, which are currently guidelines, will become law, with associated fines
