Even assuming that any postponement relates only to waterlogging what if other games are off the same day? What if the weather is genuinely exceptional with a ludicrous amount of rain in the run up to kick off where even the best of pitches would struggle. This last point is relevant when we are playing on a day there is no other games to compare directly with as with the Rangers debacle last season.

Motherwell had problems years ago, got fined, sorted their pitch but didn't have the 'any further postponement ' clause hanging over their heads. This is all down to the SPFL pandering to Rangers. Of course we should have sorted things before but we have now by all accounts and that should have been the end of it. The next season threat is just pure vindictiveness.
You would have expected that to be part of the appeal and an easy win but this is John Nelms

I fully expect at least one or two cancellations next year, I expect the full fine to be imposed.
