Dundee match postponed

The SPFL and Police Scotland have confirmed Saturday’s cinch Premiership match against Dundee at Pittodrie has been postponed.

Much of the Scottish east coast has been ravaged by Storm Babet, leading to significant damage, disruption and, tragically, loss of life.

Pittodrie itself has not been immune, with both wind damage and flooding sustained in both the Richard Donald and Main Stands.

With the United Kingdom MET Office having updated its weather warning status to red for large parts of the northeast on Saturday, the most severe threat level which includes a risk to life, Police Scotland and the SPFL have postponed the fixture, along with five others, to a future date.

Chief Executive Alan Burrows said: “Given the current awful weather and the updated warnings now in place for Saturday, and the associated risk that would pose to the players, staff, and supporters of both clubs, postponing this match to a later date was the only sensible and logical step.

“It goes without saying that we would ask everyone to heed the current warnings and advice and stay safe until the worst of the weather has passed.”

The date and kick-off time of the rearranged match will be confirmed in due course.
