Probably a moot point now....but the subtitles come up in English.

[Hibs7]

Late call off !!

A90 seems to be just passable but blocked going North !!! more call for a winter break, I know it would be hard to miss football every week, but sense must prevail, I have a seson ticket and if any game is called off and rescheduled to a midweek game I can't make them.

[Golden Bear]

Oh yes it is off.

[Hibs7]

Ferkin keyboards and an after new year head, BBC man at Falkirk says the pitch is playable.

Q the summer fitba debate.

Chick Young will be in his element now.

[Baldy]

its off but even Falkirk players are saying it should be on.

[Baldy]

United v Aberdeen may also be off ... a decision will be made at 2pm ..

supporters from Aberdeen will be furious if its off.

Its a joke, they don't think about supporters

[blackpoolhibs]

Just said on ssn its off because of a frozen pitch. I thought all SPL teams had to have undersoil heating?

[Frazerbob]

Eddie May just said on the radio that the two teams are going to play each other in 25 minutes each way training match on the "unplayable" pitch.

[oconnors_strip]

Listening to the radio and waiting to hear if the united game was to be on or not. pitch is playable, the police were having a meeting to decide if the match should be called off due to the safety of the fans travelling to and espeically home after the game.

think a delayed start is to be had.

They have undersoil heating, and it's been on for the last few days, but the groundsman has just been on the radio saying he's been working on the pitch since 7 this morning, but their are 4 areas of the pitch which are dodgy. They also have covers for the pitch, but unfortunately they don't cover the whole pitch with a section about 2 yards wide along the width not covered. Seems the ref bottled it

I hope someone has the balls to tell the police to GTF.

And yet they make a decision these days based on the 'safety' of supporters when most of them are already on their way to the game. Donuts.

The Police will still get their money though, and the extra costs will have to be forked out by the clubs for the rearranged games as well

You can tell the polis to GTF till you're blue in the face, if they deem a situation to be a danger to public safety, they have the powers to stop events going ahead.

You never see them using it to stop Orange marches though......

Can't play the game without the police's approval, I believe.

Snowing heavy in Monifieth now - and Dundee area

[Jack]

Seems the Dunfermline v Raith Rovers game was called off for the same reasons. The weather forecast is maybe bad for after the game so the game is called off.

I know this has been debated earlier but I really think the police should not be deciding if a games is called off for the safety of the visiting fans. Fair doos if the area surrounding the stadium is treacherous but they should not take into consideration the conditions beyond that. If however they are able to justify that they should also be closing cinemas; shopping arcades; tourist attractions; hogmanay events etc. In fact they should just close down cities, towns and villages.

Bloody lunacy.

[hibsdaft]

game going ahead at 3pm according to Jim Spence

Yep, I've posted that before. There will be more people travelling to do shopping than going to footy but they don't close M & S. Probably more to do with the police not fancying a day out in the freezing cold than anything else. You may have also noticed it never seems to happen in England!

[Just Jimmy]

Just back from Dundee, went up about half 8 this morning. It was snowing a wee bit on the way up but the roads back to Fife were pretty rubbish conditions by about half 2.

It was snowing pretty heavy in Dundee from about 10am.

I was just catching up on paper work etc so I left about ten to 2.

Thats like me buying trousers that dont fit.

[Barney McGrew]

Only two games make it in Scotland, plus a host of FA Cup ties down south.

I'm hoping for Dundee United to continue their poor form this afternoon
