Popular Post TBagalag 722 Posted April 9 Popular Post Share Posted April 9 29 minutes ago, Colin Traive said: Any Tayside bears on PitchWatch with updates on likelihood of this game going ahead? Pishing down here and the forecast for Dundee is much the same. Pitch was shocking against Motherwell and it won’t be improving in a monsoon. It pissed down in Dundee overnight mate and is still on now. If the forecast is correct, that won’t change for the next couple of days. I’ve not heard anything about the pitch at Dens as yet, but I think it’ll be a struggle for them to have that pitch playable for tomorrow. esquire8, Bobby Hume, Hadron Collider and 2 others 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know what it's like in Dundee, but it's been chucking it down in North Lanarkshire since yesterday. If it's like that there, and continues into tomorrow there's no way that pitch will be ok to play on. And if they do play the game in those conditions, it makes a mockery of the first call off and calls into question the ethical fortitude of the SPFL.

STRUTH82 815 Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 Either way this pitch is going to make this game more difficult than it needs to be, a 1-0 get the job done will do..... whenever it actually gets played Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact it did means this game will also go ahead now. Dens pitch is a mess and will be much worse tomorrow. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dundee numpty Nelms giving the same patter this morning about how they've done all they can to have the pitch ready. They've not covered the entire pitch, looks like the tarriers have got their training pitch covers back. He said it could be played next week if it gets postponed again....

DrLaudrup 4,690 Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 Tinpottery at its finest with clubs like this in the top division. I had a degree of sympathy with them before but if the pitch is unplayable again we should just be given the points. Worth it just to see the reaction from celtic, and would probably warrant another strongly worded letter to the SFA. Bobby Hume 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Specky Forum Organiser 65,295 Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 What an absolute fanny going on about the weather like that. It's a bit of rain in Scotland ffs. Rain that amateur pitches have been able to cope with in the same city. BlueAvenger, graeme_4 and JackAlex93 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
graeme_4 34,774 Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 We all know it won’t be in playable condition, but it’ll either be: - played anyway in a horrendous nick - postponed to an utterly inconvenient time for us What should happen is it be moved else where, and get fans in. If they’d done it early enough rather than waiting until the last minute praying for a miracle then it could have been managed.
