Great Balls of Shire Posted April 6 Report Share Posted April 6 17 hours ago, Kmcalpin said: This is down to the SPFL and Dundee. We are the innocent party here. Its not down to incompetence. We're simply pawns in a "bigger game". With the final pre split games fast approaching the SPFL could easily have scheduled Dundee's outstanding game against Sevco for last midweek. That would have left next midweek free for contingencies. What's the problem with that you might reasonably ask? It all seems very logical. However Sevco have a game on Sunday against guess who? Celtic no less. Therefore the SPFL had to give them a free midweek. Preferential treatment? As for Dundee, as Falkirk did years ago, they prioritised playing budget over pitch renovation. Why should we suffer? Nb. Thousands of complaints about sectarian hatred at Sunday's OF game, under the Hate Crime Act, but no action taken by Police Scotland. I wouldn't want to be a call handler for police on Sunday and listen to all the tedious nonsense... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But hey, why don't you guys buy tickets and set off anyway and we will tell you whether the game is on or off as you pass Perth. Fans are the lifeblood of the sport and get treated like crap. All because the powers that be did not want to be accused of bias by insisting Rangers and Dundee play midweek before an OF game. But then it is the Clubs that allow the cretins on the SPL Board to run the show. Nothing changes. It's nothing new that fans are treated shoddily , we only fund the game.

Just what I was thinking After 90 minutes on that pitch today guaranteed it will be in a lot worse condition after the game , even more so if any rain due Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At this point I’d be very happy to see us beat them and just award 3 points to rangers. Oh and award us 3 points against hibs 😜 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn’t play that well last week but I think most of our players are going to be like that some good weeks and some bad weeks. Just not so good when we encounter this weeks where they all have a bad game on the same day !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sailor_h Posted April 6 Report Share Posted April 6 The pitch is a disaster. The match wouldn’t have went on had they not had the other games postponed. The SPFL should fine them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stv Posted April 6 Report Share Posted April 6 Kettlewell just on radio live. At last someone speaks his mind and tells the truth. Said he s been ragin all week ,his dundee contacts told him mid week game would not be on, also he alterd team so no one that has an injury niggle won’t get injured worse . Then let it go about Dundee spending on players no the park. Said we spent on the park 1.2 million and that was money he couldnt spend on players , also said everyone knew what Dundee were up to and it wasnt right. New CEO told him to say what he thought , i hope Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’s a difference between saying it in a wee presser and saying to it on a national radio programme just before the game. But nobody will do anything about it.
