On a completely different subject, does anyone know if referees still get their fee even if the game is off?

As far as I'm aware, yes. If they didn't, it'd mean there's situations where the ref is potentially putting players at risk.

Definitely seems like this ref had other plans today.

Both Dundee clubs managing to make themselves look like absolute tools with last minute postponements in a week is quite an achievement. 

Albeit Dundee's today looked debatable

TBF,

DABs wanted the game off, Dees wanted the game on.

When do we reckon this'll get played?, won't be this Tuesday cause forecast Tuesday is rain all day so wouldn't make sense for it to be then (wait for it to now be announced as this Tuesday night).

Then for following week Dundee is consistently below zero overnight, would probably be one of these ones which is best to can down the road until start of March or something in the hope of improved weather

We play Arbroath on Friday so Tuesday is no good for us likely.

What's stopping it from being tomorrow?

No reason not to play Tuesday-Friday. 

I can’t see it being rearranged for then, but us playing Friday isn’t a reason not to.

Right enough, Tuesday-Friday just felt closer in my head despite being the exact fucking same.

Technically it’s longer, because it’s evening-evening rather than evening-afternoon. But I think a lot of people make the same mistake, to be fair.

It’s like English teams playing a league game on the Monday then a Europa League game on the Thursday. It seems too close. 

Probably something to do with it being the same “midweek”.

Yes, obviously. The video showing them trying to clear water shows a literal puddle on the pitch.

 

Again, since you've clearly not read the thread. That part of the pitch wasn't deemed an issue by the ref as confirmed by the journalist attending the game. It's also been mentioned that that video makes the pitch look worse than it actually is and it's a section in the middle that led to the ref calling it off.

ETA:
