Therefore the game would have been off even if the heating had been on making the main stand available. Remember also we were not alone. Motherwell's home game on the same day was off for the same reasons and many games were off that day due to frozen pitches. Don't think the club deserves criticism for this particular event!
Aberdeen managed to play their home game on Saturday 17th December 2022 despite a lot heavier snowfall in Aberdeen and a 12.30pm kickoff due to their game being televised live on SKY Sports.
