According to footage shown on Sky Sports News, presenter Chris Latchem does not expect the Dundee versus Rangers game to go forward. On Sunday (17 March), Dundee announced a pitch inspection at 09:15am due to heavy rain overnight. There has yet to be an announcement on the game at Dens Park, but the signs are not positive.”Take a look at this,” Latchem stated on Sky Sports News [17 March, 09:12am]. The footage was also published on Twitter.”We hope to bring you Dundee vs Rangers. Oh, the ball doesn’t bounce, does it? Tell you what, I don’t think you need [an inspection] since that ball isn’t running straight.” A pitch inspection was done at Dens Park ahead of the Dundee-Rangers game.Rangers could benefit from this encounter at Dens Park taking place to avoid having an extra fixture to consider in after the international break, even if our European campaign is now complete. While this encounter is far from a walk in the park, the Gers would have been confident in taking all three points to reclaim the Scottish Premiership lead over Celtic.If the game is postponed, it means that the current game will hang over us for a while, and the table will not reveal the full tale.
The early signals are not promising, but everyone will do everything they can to get the game going. Fans’ safety will also be considered, but many Gers supporters will already be on their way to the stadium.
On the other hand, the Rangers players can now rest because a second game in three days has been averted, but with all of the preparation in place, it is better to go ahead than not.
Fingers hoping for positive developments in the next update.
