I'm irish and I don't know why Scotland doesn't play summer football like the Scandinavian countries and league of Ireland. Pitches are in better condition, and teams are at full fitness for early rounds of European football
Dundee is going to have to make some serious moves to improve their drainage system before next season or they should be required to have an alternative ground arrangement in place. For a top tier side to have to call off 5 matches during the course of the season is unacceptable in my view. As for the game you were able to cover, strong support from fans that were present was a positive. I do agree with your point that getting a real fiery crowd is hard when you don’t have much to play for. It is why having relegation is such an important piece of the puzzle. As an American, I know the pain of having to watch your team play out the string when they are out of competition 4 months before the end of the season.
I live across in Oslo now and follow the leagues here. Here's a great cancellation story... Start were due to play a promotion playoff v Bryne at home - the winner progressing towards the Eliteserien (top level of Norwegian football). The weather had been cold, -5°, but was due to warm up for the game. Start decided not to turn on their undersoil heating and risk it. The day of the game came and the weather was below 0°. The match was called off due to a frozen park. The rules here are strict. If the game is cancelled due to the club being idiots the game is forfeited with a 0.3 result being awarded. Start's season ruined because they tried to save a few quid. The club board left.
You, knowing more about football there. Does that sort of thing happen often? And what do you think of it? Personally I'm on the mindset it is Start''s fault.
@Canas94 rain isn't a huge issue for most clubs, even Brann Bergen where it rains a lot. Many of the clubs have installed artificial pitches, including Vålarenga in Oslo and Tromsø up north. I went to the final game of the league season between Vålarenga and Tromsø in Oslo. The pitchside temperature was -16°. The game was on. Tromsø are planning on moving back to a grass surface, but that has its issues. They have a lot of snow through winter and its dark, so when the season kicks off in early April the grass is already struggling.
After the Dundee v Rangers debacle I like the idea of the home team losing a mandatory 3-0 scoreline if they can't fulfill a fixture to their stupidity/incompetence. Truly catastrophic conditions though should be judged as such. Some things no-one can control.
Scotland might need to be a summer competition, 1 for better weather. , 2 the change for no European tv competition for a couple of months and there would be more of a focus on the SPL
hahaha I feel so bad Sam, the cynicism and frustration is kind of funny though (for us not you). Appreciate all the effort you put into making content and support for Scottish football. Much love from Nova Scotia!
Dundee sacked their experienced groundkeepers and replaced them with cheaper versions, who clearly aren't up to the job. The game was on after the first inspection. Why did they not cover the whole pitch again after that instead of just the bad bits? Surely covering it up would have kept it dry, eh?
Nobody knows that for sure. And you are incorrect about bringing in cheap replacements as they have just hired the DABs groundsman for next season. The tribunal will tell the full story.
Fair point but very quiet about the Rangers bus turning up late first time around at Dens and Fire Alarms beung set off. Very lucky the first game went ahead at all.
That’s not really the problem though. The problem is Dundee are amateurs and cannot be trusted to maintain the first and most basic thing every club should be maintaining: a pitch. Even more amateur are the SPFL, their utter incompetence has allowed this to happen and are too spineless to do anything about it. Scottish Football needs a massive overhaul, starting at the top. They’ve undersold and ruined our game.
@Celticfc67 Murrayfield doesn't have VAR plus it's the most expensive option of grounds to hire Easter Road or Tyne castle would be only options for Edinburgh
Truro down in the South West of England have had to move ALL of thier remaining home fixtures to a neutral ground in Gloucester which is almost a 400 mile round trip for fans as thier home games had been called off so many times and their fixtures were back logging. This week they have had to play Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday.
Postponed games? Mate, you weren't around at a time when there wasn't any undersoil heating and drainage was making holes on the pitch with a garden fork.
Here in the US a colleague at work keeps saying to me 'does it rain in England every day?' (when they say England Americans mean Britain).😂 So I sarcastically say yes. Although at times it did feel like every day!
So sad seeing Rovers down so low. Used to look forward to seeing them play against us in the old Lanarkshire Cup and won't mention when we played in Scottish Cup.
Hi mate, any chance of you doing a weekly news show, like a Scottish football round up and discuss all the pressing topics of the week? I'd really enjoy that and I'm sure many others would too
As a Dundee FC supporter it is getting embarrassing to say the least at all these call offs. To give you an idea my Nephews Under 10 match at Fairmuir Park not 1 mile from Dens earlier in the evening and that match was on. Maybe Dundee FC should get the Dundee Parks Department Staff to come in and sort out the Dens pitch as they seem able to keep the Cities Amateur and Juvenile Leagues going no problem.
Dundee is the only city I know in WORLD football with THREE grounds in one street, all using Victorian drains. Dens is on a slop which makes things potentially even worse.
@@johnavery3941 If you know Dens that corner at the TCK end has a drainage problem and from what I’m told runs into a different outlet from Tanadice. The new houses on the Dens Road haven’t helped the situation. Hey but I’m sure someone could enlighten me as Scotland seems to be full of experts.
Question: how much money is bet on football games during a give season? Could a percentage of ace bet go to a fund for pitch upgrades for lower level clubs?
Hi Sam, I feel your frustration watching your latest vlog. Perhaps the SFA should have a serious conversation about running the leagues from April to November. Have DFC cut back on the upkeep of their pitch? If they have that is unacceptable and they have a responsibility to get their matches played to schedule.
@@SO-qg7zk It is April but if it was the start of the season, the pitches would be in a better state to absorb excessive water. Plus just think how good it would be playing through the summer months! Mind you, no evening matches as it would be Scottish Team 0 - 1 Midges!! Lol!
As a non-Scot, it seems like matches are postponed way too much in that country - i.e. just play through it. Stop postponing matches when the conditions aren't really all that bad. (Perhaps this season is the worst, but this seems to have been an issue in Scotland for many years.)
I really want to watch a Scottish league match hopefully in future and this is an extremely so fantastic ever video,good friend Sam!!!LONG LIVE,GOOD FRIEND!!!🏋♂️
You can't just decide to play at a different ground with short notice.😅 There are too many things to consider. The catering, the staff, the police and stewards, monetary compensation,transport for fans and players, on street parking that wasn't expected, etc ..
At this point dundees unprofessionalism is affecting rangers in the title race , at what point does a team have to say “we do not have an adequate playing surface and cannot find a replacement venue,therefore we must forfeit the game “
@@undercoverbrother67 I’d rather we get to play the game , but Dundee should at least make an attempt at finding an alternative venue … they’ve had 5 games postponed this season … and the best they can come up with after it happening twice for 1 game now is “ hopefully next week it’s better” with no intention to find a backup plan …
I think all this comes down to is that Scotland needs to invest as a whole into it's football system which is probably it's highest return in terms of tax and build new facilities and they can't have nostalgia blind them into keeping old stadiums just because of age.
No VAR which is required at top level - someone would need to foot the bill for that. There is then the small task of negotiating with United to let their rivals play there as a home game.
This game been called off is the equivalent of Same teams been relegated from the English premier league and going back up the next again season It’s boring
The reason it keeps happening is because Dundee are guilty of wilful neglect towards their pitch. This now has the potential to disrupt the run in t the title, and with the Strachan influence at the club, a certain club in the east end of Glasgow is pushing to disrupt it more from Rangers, in an attempt to make their run in more congested. It was simply a mess up on the part of Dundee that is now being gamed by an interested party, who want to make sure they get the best chance of winning the title, at the expense of sporting integrity, despite the said club from the east end inventing the term, (which doesn’t exist in any meaningful way), and who used to threaten the Scottish League Bobby in the past and who now effectively control the said sporting body through intimidation and nonsense.

They have led S OTT isn football into embarrassment, and it is through a strategy to run the game down, so they can have an excuse to seek playing elsewhere. Instead of working to better the game, and maybe build it into a leading small nation league, they do the opposite because of a large shareholders wish to sell his shares on at a profit in the future.

Re Dundee. 'It's the rain, it's so bad...' Yeah, shock horror it rains in Scotland! It's not a new phenomenon, so deal with it! If they know they can't maintain the pitch to the standard required (as clearly they must know by now after multiple postponements), then have a plan B venue ready to use if nothing else... Start threatening to dock them points for their incompetence. Really it's this simple: If you can't exist as a top flight club complete with the responsibilities that entails, then you shouldn't be allowed to compete in the top league. They are now messing with the minds of the top two clubs, neither of whom I imagine want Dundee to be the ones determining which club goes into the home stretch as the chasing club or the chased - the mindset/pressure of being top or second matters. Once was embarrassing, but to be postponed twice in springtime is unacceptable and brings the entire SPL into disrepute.
Dundee's argument is somewhat weakened by Dundee United's ground being a few minutes away; unless Dundee's ground is in a tiny microclimate. I watched a Rangers fan channel last night and the host read out the mealy-mouthed reaction from the SPL. Rangers FC were very forthright in their response to the postponement. If a club cannot maintain its playing facilities it has no business in the SPL.
Sam just a quick thought from myself,why don't Dundee simply cover their pitch after each game?,put covers over it and then remove them the day before,seems weird only a quick walk from Dens Park to Tannidice it's only theirs keep getting called off sharing the same weather lol or get funding to change to a 3G pitch?
@@CS-DFC Thank you for the clarification on the point I raised,at Blundell Park (GTFC) We had problems as being so close to the River Humber, Clay based soil, and only half the pitch getting sunlight on it in winter,have had to relay the pitch at least 3 times that I know of in the last 10 years to try to get better drainage so we now only lose games in severe cold weather or torrential rain lasting a week or so,good luck for the rest of the season and please hammer R*ngers when you play them 🤣🤣👍
What the club that keeps banging on about a super new stadium in the local media but cannot seem to find any revenue for other things and are always losing piles of money, struggled to pay a smallish fee to buy the stadium back from an ex-Utd director and fill their team with loan signings. I thought they were rich or is it just the PR spin that no-one questions. New stadium - look at the shiny keys through the windows, mugs.
Seems like you're at your wits end a wee bit and that's completely understandable, luckily we've got a brilliant pitch and brilliant ground staff at Hibs to where I've not had to deal with any postponements but the general situation with facilities at the moment in Scotland is an absolute shambles. I was meant to be at civil last night, just a bit of a kick in the teeth when you've got a night at the football planned. Even worse for someone who's making content on it.
Your ground needs VAR to be played there if not you can't play at another ground, then again why should dundee fork out money to play the game elsewhere if rangers are that concerned and want the game to be played at another ground, pay for it then.
It is what it is the rain has been unprecedented this year down the valley in Darvel the pitch is decimated and it's touch and go every week if the game is on. Summer football is a must for Scottish clubs. Why is it never on the table it makes sense on all levels.
The Dundee/Rangers game could have been played last week on 3rd. For whatever reason, presumably to give them more time to prepare for the Derby at the weekend, the League chose the 10th. I bet they regret it now as the split is almost upon us.
Why don't you make a video about something more important, the throwing of missiles that could cause serious harm or even death. Should they deduct points from teams that agree guilty of having fans thrown missiles.

Dundee Hilltown has very unique street by street climate change problem and unfortunately, Dens is on the wrong side of the Great Dundee Rain shadow that runs along Tannadice St. - North of Tannadice street and you are grand but South you are f++++. Also other issues are the Tories, Masons, Elon Musk, King Charles, Rangers etc
Climate change is a funny one - biological fact, if it warms and there is more CO2 plants tend to grow faster, bigger and better but sadly the clown that posted that one on social media is probably lucky he can type and stole someone's phone to post it on. Don't expect much education in the Dundee end.
How funny would it be if Dundee beat Rangers after all this and virtually handed Celtic the title. Huns would be going mental. Ha ha ha 🤣 No chance of course, more likely Dundee will get gubbed 5-0 🤣
Ah an english man moaning and moaning about the weather. Video about EK and all we hear is poor rangers should be top. Ripping dundee apart and the league system...yip talking up the scottish game 😂 clubs have no control over the weather, its not been that bad😂 your videos are becoming a moaning session more and more!

Murrayfield not up to var standard the nearest ground is St Johnstone
Great video
Rain it’s not rocket science
Only 1 team in Tayside 🔵⚪
It is what it is the rain has been unprecedented this year down the valley in Darvel the pitch is decimated and it's touch and go every week if the game is on.
Summer football is a must for Scottish clubs.
Why is it never on the table it makes sense on all levels.
The Dundee/Rangers game could have been played last week on 3rd. For whatever reason, presumably to give them more time to prepare for the Derby at the weekend, the League chose the 10th. I bet they regret it now as the split is almost upon us.
Because its scotland
Why don't you make a video about something more important, the throwing of missiles that could cause serious harm or even death. Should they deduct points from teams that agree guilty of having fans thrown missiles.

Celtic are to win league spl don't want Dundee game played till after the last celtic game then if rangers lose then it was in their hands
Let us see your tinfoil hat
@jimg6458 it makes sense tho!
😂😂😂😂 no it doesnt ...all the tims are just concentrating on the next Rangers game...you still have to go to tynecastle and Rugby park 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣@@WilliamKidd-iw3xd
Have a word with yourself son. It’s a conspiracy. 😂😂😂😂
Celtic have to play Hearts and Killie . Could easily drop points in both games.
A hope u going to the play offs
Dundee Hilltown has very unique street by street climate change problem and unfortunately, Dens is on the wrong side of the Great Dundee Rain shadow that runs along Tannadice St. - North of Tannadice street and you are grand but South you are f++++. Also other issues are the Tories, Masons, Elon Musk, King Charles, Rangers etc
Climate change is a funny one - biological fact, if it warms and there is more CO2 plants tend to grow faster, bigger and better but sadly the clown that posted that one on social media is probably lucky he can type and stole someone's phone to post it on. Don't expect much education in the Dundee end.
😂😂😂 mon the accies ❤🤍
Why are you so terrified to say anything about rangers and celtic....be honest.
How funny would it be if Dundee beat Rangers after all this and virtually handed Celtic the title.
Huns would be going mental. Ha ha ha 🤣
No chance of course, more likely Dundee will get gubbed 5-0 🤣
More likely Hearts and Killie will take points of Celtic. (AGAIN)
Rangers fan
Ah an english man moaning and moaning about the weather. Video about EK and all we hear is poor rangers should be top. Ripping dundee apart and the league system...yip talking up the scottish game 😂 clubs have no control over the weather, its not been that bad😂 your videos are becoming a moaning session more and more! Talking about a community in scottish football whilst turning a blind eye to the real problems in our game 👌🏻
❤
Go to gigg lane
