Linda should be visiting Specsavers if sitting in the front row of the Directors Box he thinks that there is nothing wrong with the Dens Park playing surface.Quote:

see what happens when folk just accept mediocrity
I still think that the installation of the new pop up sprinkler system in Dens Park in December 2013 is the main cause of the problems with the Dens Park pitch.Quote:

There was no point laying a new pitch last summer if they cannot get the drainage problems resolved.

The Dundee Football Club board of directors back then were prepared to spend money keeping the pitch up to standard despite no undersoil heating and no pop up sprinkler system whereas the current Dundee Football Club board of directors appear to be cutting back on the maintenance of the Dens Park stadium including the pitch.
