You know it's ridiculous to have the groundsman off in the worst weather in Scotland.

Proof of pudding only meaningful game off in the country.

Shambles

Fair enough I'll go with your theory, was just pointing out that the guy should have the right to take time off when it suits him if he wants to. I doubt his duties weren't covered by the club bringing in someone else but I don't know that for sure.

But what difference would having the groundsman there have made in this instance? There's s decent drainage system under the turf, the water didn't drain away and the pitch was saturated, it wasn't like it was surface water it was saturated. What could he have done to get it to drain away if he'd been on site? And would this have definitely made the pitch playable? Could it have caused damage to the pitch making it more likely that future games might be called off?

He's a groundsman, essentially a gardener, and not a Drainage Engineer.

On another note, you claim it's the only game off in 'the country' and yet on anther thread you've implied that Scotland isn't a country in its own right. Some games were called off in England today. If we're all one country then ours wasn't the only meaningful game called off in the country today was it?

Anyway I don't see how it being the only meaningful game called off in Scotland is in any way relevant. The pitch wasn't playable and the right call was made; why people can't just accept that and get on with their lives rather than trying to find someone to blame is beyond me.
