    There must be something far wrong with the Dens Park pitch if two hours rain results in it being waterlogged. https://dundeefc.co.uk/news/match-postponed-3/

    I enclose the rainfall radar for the Dundee area from the Met Office website which shows that the rain did not arrive in Dundee today until just after 12 noon and it was off by 3pm. https://www.metoffice.gov.uk/public/...ime=1645570500
    You will need to be quick looking at this rainfall radar as it updates every ten minutes .

    12 midday to 3pm is two hours?

    I know you live in the past but are you now trying to turn back time?

    If it rains on day of the match it's off.

    Just another piece in the jigsaw of ever declining standards at Dens.

    The game was called off at 2.30pm whilst the rain did not start falling in Dundee until shortly after 12noon .
    If you want to be exact almost two hours thirty minutes until the game was called off.
    The last two days have been sunny with the Met Office weather station at nearby Leuchars being the sunniest place in the U.K. on both days.
    I could understand if the Dens Park was waterlogged after days of continuous rain but that has not even been the case.
    John Nelms should be making a statement explaining why the Dens Park pitch is so prone to flooding after less than three hours of rainfall and what steps he is planning to take to resolve this problem.

    It will be interesting to see when tonight’s game will be replayed especially as Neil Doncaster forced us to play with a weakened team at Aberdeen on Boxing Day 2021 because there were no spaces in the calendar for the 2021-22 season for a cancelled game to be played later in the season before the split.

    So far this season we have had games called off for a puddle, a crumbling stadium and a virus that 99.8% of people recover from because Herr furious wanted to ride the Omicron tsunami wave and yet had to play a fixture without a team......Scottish fitba.....is a joke.

    In the past we have had games off because of a choked drain, snow on the Derry steps and no running water.

    Standards Islay in Dens and in Govt....😒

    Meanwhile I have this vision of the groundsman and most respected on a big red double decker with Una Stubbs, Mervyn Hayes and Cliff ****ing Richard.

    Cmon gang next stop Texas.
