I’m not sure I can cope with this length of time not watching Motherwell. In the immortal words of Renton. I need a fucking hit!

Good early decision. Lets us get on with planning an alternative weekend. Hopefully we get a decent draw in the next round as a carrot. Be good to get it played on the 18th, otherwise fixtures might start to pile up, with the Dundee game also still requiring a suitable date. Onwards to Wednesday night and getting it right up The Rainjurs!

There has been so much rain up there since the start of the year that the sheep are now identifying as Hippos!

There are too many posters on here trying to get grizzlylg mad redundant

My extensive network of Aberdonian contacts (= one person) tells me steady rain is forecast for the next fortnight.

And not stopped since mid week game called off and expected to stop for days still.

No surprise there. Just looked at the forecast and it’s more of the same so if it didn’t get called off now it would have been very suspicious. again, looking at their forecast, I’m not sure when next they’ll be able to play a game there !!

Games off

He’ll have a better idea after 3pm inspection today… Falling as sleet currently

Wet pitch might not suit our style of playing. I am sure Jens has planned for the Pittodire wetlands

My mate (Aberdeen fan/from Peterhead) was talking to me this morning. He’s saying he’d be shocked if the game is on. If anything the rain has been worse yesterday and today up there and the park is a mud heep. i think I’d prefer it off as well as it sounds like it’d be a total lottery.

0630 ko on Sunday for me and it’s on Paramount +

Pretty standard for a cup game. Can you imagine Man City playing on that now?

Easy solution is for all the diddy clubs to take a leaf out of the Arsecheeks' book and refuse to play in game where David Dickinson is refereeing Rangers

Looks like how Firhill used to be most of the time..........

Aberdeen Groundsman out early this morning after 16 days constant rain with scarifier to help drainage.

A'la John Rowbotham versus Hearts playing up to the TV at half time?

The game was 6 weeks ago, best revenge would be to end our ridiculous record of not beating them at home in league since boxing day 2001

From memory, in all three the referee David Dickinson had no hesitation in giving all three decisions, to give Rangers the penalty on two occasions and to dismiss Motherwell's claim for a penalty.I don't think VAR was involved in any of the three. Interestingly in last night's Tarvenier decision, VAR did not get involved whereas it did get involved to upgrade Trusty's yellow card to a red. There are huge discrepancies in that system regardless of which team you support.

No arguments with that. VAR is an absolute scourge on football.

Just bin VAR. It's that simple. Subjective decisions in the booth are wrong just as often as subjective decisions on the pitch. If we must keep it, go with the 20 or 30 second rule. Can't see any error within those 20 or 30 seconds, no clear and obvious error, decision on the pitch stands, and we move on.

We’re long overdue a win at home against Rangers. We’ve beaten them twice away in the last two seasons but a win at Fir Park in front of the home fans would be that bit more special I think. A draw is the most likely result here but you just hope that we might be able to get the win. Another 1-1 with us bemoaning missed chances I reckon.
