Dundee v Rangers Aff

Had a wee laugh at the suggestion playing the game at a neutral venue that wasn’t VAR enabled might result in poor decisions or controversy. 🤣

Is that not like a burd asking a fella to have cex without a rubber?

Watching Don Robertson ‘live stream’ a pitch inspection all day on SSN is painful viewing.

The Scotland v Georgia game seemed to handle a wee bit of surface water? 🤔

Can't see any game being forfeited, would set a terrible precedent. Most likely an alternative venue
----------------------------------------------------------------------
the problem is though I think 17th is latest date that the game can be scheduled due to the the split
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Make them play it at Tannadice - that'd learn them.

As mentioned above about the 70s and 80s....this carry on is another good reason for getting rid of the $hitey split, I've never liked it

Game could get played any time from now to end of the season if we didn't have it

What would be terrible about it?
Think it would be a good precedent to set....if you are going to get up to your eyes in debt chasing top tier football, and then sack your ground staff coz you cannie afford them, meaning your pitch is constantly unplayable, ye deserve all you get
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Well, if Celtic were to be awarded a 3-0 victory for a game that was never played towards the end of a very tight season I'd be upset

Who voted for it?

Seems to be something that teams would only agree to if they were certain of what the outcome would be anyway

Can you list the clubs that voted for it please?

Yaaaaaaaasssssssssss


Back to normal now

Tbh I wouldn't want a forfeit, would rather play the game.

But struggling to see what other solution there is if the game doesn't go ahead next week? It would be the third opportunity for the home side to get the game on and the third postponement. That effort today was embarrassing with the covers over tiny bits of the pitch.

The Scottish Cup semis are next weekend then the split comes in so there wouldn't be any other dates to play the game within the current rules. So would either have to be an early call with alternative venue ready to go or a forfeit on the basis of being unable to comply with the rules.

Don't want a forfeit either.....but the SPFL need to grow a set here to avoid this kind of thing happening again

There has to be some sort of consequence to Dundee here for this farce....fining them would be daft if they cannie afford bloody groundstaff

Simple solution play it at Ibrox

Or Tynecastle/Easter Road/ Perth

Why involve a 3rd party, who would incur cost and need to be paid.

Also regardless of what half of split they end up (I think Hibs can overtake) they get 5 away games
