I'd imagine this is where Sky had their say with regards to scheduling.
As much as it would have been a bit of a pain for supporters who had arrived at the stadium and travelled, and the players for preperation etc, a 3pm kick off would have been a good compromise and mean there wouldnt be a fixture spare to play.
If the case is that Tannadice 100 yards up the road is fit for a game of football, Dundee should be hauled over the coals for not having their pitch fit for purpose.
Also, if that is the 4th time this season they have had a game called off, there should be sanctions.
I shudder to think of the wages and transfer fees we have wasted on players over the years.
Roofe was definitely the best striker at the club, but the injuries have taken their toll and it's right that he goes at the end of the season. Another in a long line of expensive and hopeful punts that hasn't worked out for us.
Agree with you, he's not moving or creating space for others at the moment.
The alternative is probably Silva, but it stifles any creativity from him, and we can't rely on Roofe being fit for 90 minutes without breaking down again.
We definitely need the international break to give a few players a breather.
We're stretching the squad so thin atm and the quality will inevitably drop when we have to rely on guys who normally wouldnt get much of a look in.
They've done us proud since Clement has come in, just need one more push against Dundee, and hopefully we get more players back after the break for the run in.
It's obviously disappointing as none of us want to see us get beat, but we've done remarkably well to get to this stage with the squad and injuries we have.
We can still come out of this season with the domestic treble, which would be incredible given the start to the season.
