Dundee's stadium

Ludicrous. It's to be torrential rain from 2pm onwards.

This is dodgy as ****.

This means that if we get a win on Saturday and Dundee don't we won't know if we've made the top 6 until after this game is played.

[007]

It should never have been called off the 1st time as they could easily have had the pitch ready. At the time, the owner said they'd done everything possible i.e. about 10-12 guys there at 6am with sand and pitchforks, which exactly sound like a big effort to me. This time they've been using rain covers so where were they the last time? If they now get to play the game after Saturday then it destroys the integrity of the league.

Our game should be postponed as well and played at the same time as Dundee. If thats not possible then Dundee should have a 0-3 defeat marked against them.

The money they should have spent on that pitch has clearly been used to bolster their football operations. Imagine if the 1.5 million we spent on pitches in the summer went to our transfer budget as well…


Btw I’d be saying this if it was anyone else fighting with Dundee for top six, honestly…(ok apart from Hearts).

Farce.

They apparently borrowed the rain covers from celtic

So because it’s rangers an early morning decision will be made. Funny that Motherwell weren’t given the same courtesy on Saturday

IIRC the original fixture was called off when the Rangers squad had already arrived at stadium?

The opposition is irrelevant here, the fault lies with Dundee.

Award a three nil win to the rangers for an easily rescheduled game, could you imagine the fallout from that if they won the league by three points. 'Tainted title'

Rangers are ok with they sort of titles

100% this. Its a total shambles and harks back to the days of clubs like Gretna, Livi (AND DUNDEE) overspending on players to save league position at all costs

Deduct Dundee 5 points and motherwell 2 just for a laugh

Theres a pic on that twitter feed from yesterday of them watering the pitch!

[Since452]

To be nice in Dundee tomorrow. 16 degrees and sunny. Should just move it forward 24 hours unless they're at the mercy of Sky?

[SteveHFC]

Game off.

[Coach Jon]

The game is off , the pitch looks dodgy.

[MWHIBBIES]

Think it's all quite funny. Not really fussed about it's effect on us. Hibs missing top 6 is Hibs fault, no one else's.

[BILLYHIBS]

Aw just give the game to The Hun 0-3

Three penalties

No one cares anymore

The games up the pole

[Bristolhibby]

If Dundee win on Saturday the split is persevered. Any other result and we (and Motherwell) are in with a shout of top 6.

Anything that upsets Sevco fans is OK with me.

So the best case for us is that we end up cheering on the Orcs in the hope of scraping into the top six.

Lean times.

I guess Rangers might not be too fussed about getting some down time after the Old Firm game.

It's Dundee who come out this looking daft.

How is it fair for them to play their last game before the split after us and Motherwell?

Can't argue with any of that. Gives Dundee an advantage should the top 6 not be settled this weekend.

I know they love to sound all high and mighty with their statements but they have a valid point here. Motherwell didn't hold back with their thoughts last weekend.

Might not actually be entirely fanciful to think Dundee might lose points over this.

[One Day Soon]

1. Rangers definitely have a point here.
2. Do they have a member of staff employed full time purely to issue statements like confetti?
3. "negligence and unprofessionalism" - Is unprofessionalism really a word?

[The Harp Awakes]

This report says that the SPFL have already initiated disciplinary action against Dundee:

https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/68695355

There can't be any guarantee that the pitch will be playable on the 17th. What happens then? The following weekend is the Scottish Cup Semis. A neutral venue on Wednesday 24th?

The Motherwell manager was pretty explicit on the radio that clubs that don't spend the money which they should on critical infrastructure like pitches are basically diverting those resources to playing staff instead, giving them an unfair advantage. I'm inclined to agree.
