So from what we’ve heard the groundskeeper said this morning it was fine. The ref then showed up at 1.30pm and decided one corner was too frozen and called the game off. The announcement was put on social media just before 2pm. Typically this is the sunniest day we’ve had for a good few weeks as well but we think the corner in question is one that gets shaded by the stand roof so it didn’t melt like the rest.
People on social media are understandably raging about it and people have been posting screenshots of the SFA rules over postponements. 🙈
We’ve ended up in another pub ready to watch the rugby and a local amateur team had their game called off too so they’re all in the pub with us. We got offered pies in the pub from the manager. Just mini ones with a choice of mince or steak but it’s better than nothing. DH and I did consider going to the fish shop that make the smokie pies but I think having them at home later just isn’t quite the same.
DH is a bit annoyed as he took today off work to go to the match (and also to avoid having to drive a bus to Edinburgh when the rugby is on LOL) and he doesn’t have another Saturday off for ages now. 😢
