Update:

"SPFL have confirmed that pitch inspections will be at 11am and every 15 mins thereafter for as long as it takes til the ball bounces at least once 2 inches off the ground which will confirm the pitch is playable as per non negotiable instructions from the authorities".

[Bluekev 44,222]

That’s an absolute joke. What if it passes the pitch inspection and then gets called off closer to KO because it’s pissed down all day?

Absolutely shocking for a club in a top league. No wonder the TV deals we get are so shite with amateurs like these in the league.

Inspection at 11am tomorrow. Ideal it seems. 🙄

All the weather forecasts I have seen over the last few days, and the one you have put up, is for it to be dryish overnight and then start to piss down from mid-day. That makes an 11am inspection pointless. 

It is a clusterfuck that we are being put in this position in such an important game. 

[STEPPS BOY 74,295]

I’m calling it - Dry overnight, pitch playable at 11, lashes down all day and game gets called off an hour before kick off.

[Nk89 1,289]

Surely the early inspection is to call it off, to stop fans travelling

Dry until 11.00 am - then almost guaranteed rain for the rest of the day 

I'm betting game will be on until around 5pm, then called off

That unfortunately is the forecast, heavy rain from mid-day, the only hope is that they have got the forecast wrong.

Should just give us the 3 points tbh, i mean we are guaranteed a penalty right so why not just cut a corner or two and give us the win.

Sellik FC have written to the SFa asking for clarification of the type of ball used for the bounce.

But with the weather forecast why not just call it now? Play it at Hampden as a slight punishment to Dundee.

[stuart1994 4,320]

Have Dundee been punished by the league at all for the amount of games they’ve had off ? I think it stands at four off so far this season. Absolutely no excuse as well, everyone else in all the leagues and the park across the road seems to be fine ?

Play it at ibrox but closed doors

[Almacger 1,445]

These Cunts in the SPFL absolutely 100% don’t give two fucks about the product they are in charge of up here (well most of it bar one member club) - if they did, a new venue would have been found and Dundee would have had their baws rattled.  Nothing has been done to address this farce so that is very telling.  They’ll probably have a wee chuckle that this is disrupting Glasgow Rangers as well, shower of

When you are aided by that (one member club) in awarding yourself £400K plus bonuses every year the place could fall round his arse for all he cares.

Weird thing is, the stadium 100 yards across the road will have a playable pitch, which lays the blame firmly at the feet of Dundee.

Nothing surer😒

[NitshillBear 1,461]

Play it at Ibrox and watch the mushroom cloud rise out of the east end 

[Ibroxholm 2,280]

Looks like it’s going to be pretty windy tomorrow night also.  If the game goes ahead, it’s likely to be a bit of a lottery in more ways than one.

[G.E.C. 18,867]

If this cancelled again I won’t be angry, just disappointed.

I doubt Dundee will need to get it on after reading this

[blueballss 2,972]

i have just driven from Aberdeen airport back home to Dundee, clear sky's, dry roads all the way down, very breezy though,  rain due to restart around potential inspection by all accounts tomorrow but at least no rain etc of any significance between now and midday tomorrow 

[evenstevens 896]

Game is not going ahead tomorrow at Dens. Not a chance.
