Are you saying you went on one of these and were disappointed you missed the 'c' (as it were)?

We'd beable to pay the 66K off alone with the Sky money from the live game from Dens next Sunday.
There’s no “Sky money” for next week’s game.
The TV money goes into a central pot and is paid to all 42 SPFL clubs as part of the prize money.

It's not if there's a single postponement - it's triggered if there's a single waterlogged postponement. The DFC statement is quite clear about that.
If you fix your drainage then you're fine. You can postpone games for other reasons if you like.
Well, no, fixed drainage doesn't mean the pitch will never be waterlogged. There's many examples down the years of clubs with (ostensibly) adequate drainage having waterlogged pitches due to extreme weather.
The fact we could still be punished even if the pitch and drainage are brought up to SPFL standards doesn't seem right.

Ross County v Hibs was postponed just before Christmas for a waterlogged pitch.

I'm sure if any other clubs have 5 postponements in the same season then they will be dealt with in the same way.
At what point do this season's postponement become irrelevant?
If (and I appreciate it's a big 'if') we completely overhaul our pitch and have it verified that the drainage is up to the standard required by the rules, will we still be forced to pay the suspended fine if a severe storm hits the day before a game and completely swamps the pitch?
In such a scenario, why would we be any different to, say, Ross County, who had a game postponed this season because of a waterlogged pitch?

Philippe Clement insists Rangers "still have our fate in our hands"
Except that’s not true. Even if Rangers win all their games, if Celtic do likewise, bar one, they’ll be level on points.
Rangers can’t control Celtic’s goal difference.

What am I missing here?
Fifth only gets Europe if Aberdeen don’t win the cup.
It would certainly be the Dundee way.

I see it now, though I am not sure how much of an "error" that will be. They might just use the Cricket channel to show it (504 on my box)
I’m not sure why, though.
The only other football they have that day is an EPL game at 4.30, and a WSL game at 6.45. There’s no EFL play-off games scheduled for that day either.
It is also down on their own website as being on the Football channel.

I thought we were excellent and it wouldn’t have been an injustice if we’d snatched it at the end.
Fifth place in our own hands now. Which may well be good news for Aberdeen.

This also now means it’s very unlikely the #Barclays will get a fifth Champions League place next season.

Well that’s an enjoyable pair of results to come home to.

“We scored three goals against Celtic a week ago, and scored two goals on Sunday.” That’s ok then.

Presume they'll have a clash that weekend?
That seems quite a ridiculous one to get wrong!I guess it fits this thread either way.

You’ll see it when you see it.

Is this because Sevco would refuse to line up in front of a Cinch advertising board?

Top class water-themed music so far.
Assuming that “Tears of a Clown” is specifically for Clement.

What's happened to the bog in front of the dugouts?

Nah. Not really. I just would rather that the league had got the fixtures scheduled fairly for St Mirren as we should not be playing Celtic away for the third time and Rangers at home for the third. It’s bollox.
But the alternative was that we played Celtic away for a third time and Rangers at home for a third time.
Something had to give.

Either Sky should have insurance against postponed fixtures, or the SPFL should have insurance against Sky billing them for postponed fixtures.
Postponement of a televised fixture is precisely the sort of "low likelihood, high impact" event that insurance is designed for.

Semi Final: Aberdeen vs Celtic
in Domestic Cup Football

So the decision is no penalty because it’s outside the box, which means it was handball and the referee should have given a free kick.
