***GAME OFF***

[Charles Bannerman]

Game off. Waterlogged pitch.

[Yngwie]

At least we'll be in the semi-final draw.

[+L_G]

Sadly the weather hasn't let up overnight and following the 8am inspection, the referee has called the game off due to a water logged pitch.

I believe that the game should now go ahead this Tuesday, assuming the weather improves over the next couple of days.

If Dundee Utd Motherwell were to draw this afternoon, the semi final draw would have 8 teams in it :-)

[Iain]

Bugger, was buzzing for it today. Any word on when they hope to re-schedule?

[RossP]

Extra 48hrs for Johnny and Aaron to get fit I suppose...

As Laura says, the rescheduled date is this Tuesday 7:45 but I suppose that could possibly be tweaked for TV purposes.

Brilliant stuff, didn't expect there to be a date set so quickly.

I notice the last train back down to Glasgow is just after twenty to ten, does anyone know/heard of scotrail tweaking there times slightly to allow what I'm sure would be a large number of people to head back down on the night?

Edit: Scrap that, it would be an 11 hour journey

Looks like I'll be trying to wiggle my way into a Celtic supporters bus instead.

So..... Back on to that bus, and back down the A9 towards Glasgow for the Celtic entourage, and then back on it again for the long boring journey north on Tuesday. They'll be thoroughly p1ssed off with that - my heart bleeds for them!

[TopSix]

I hope it will be covered by Sky.

[tm4tj]

As long as it's not covered by snow

[Ronaldo]

Oh no, means I'll have to watch the rugby!

[Caley Mad In Berks]

What a bummer! Rugby it is then, followed by Man City v Reading on ESPN at 17.30. A couple of my mates are avid Reading fans. There are about 3000 going up to Manchester today in 60 free coaches laid on my the Reading owner, John Madejski. Mind you he is a multi millionaire, but it is still a nice gesture.

[CELTIC1CALEY3]

Psychological warfare. Celtic pack their bags after a warm night in the Kingsmills and head back to Glasgow. They train Monday and presumably head back Tuesday morning. Hopefully they travel by coach on both journies rather than fly.

I'd contemplate buying it to personally shut the place down on Tuesday.

[+old caley girl]

rumour has it they are enjoying the hospitality of the Kingsmills Hotel till Tuesday and not going home after all!

[12th Man]

Seeing as Alex Salmond has had a greater than normal interest in Scottish football of late. I hope he can make it up for the match not only to see what should be a great game but to get first hand experience of how much funding is required to vastly improve the A9.

Never mind dangerous overtaking lanes. If the A9 was dueled between Perth and Inverness at a speed of 1 mile a year. The project would not be completed until approximately year 2100.

If funding is available to widen roads to accommodate an overtaking lane but the funding isn't there to dual it then change the rules please first minister.

[TopSix]

Don't get me started on the A9 and trams...

[Haugh Aye]

Does anyone know if the game is still going to be on SKY?. As Tuesday is a Champion league night, will we still be on?

Could be sky Sports 1 Paul? Same listing as Sky Sports News at the mo.

[DundeeICT]

On the BBC sportsound Facebook page there are loads of Celtic numpties blaming caley for the call off. Stupid bloody *****!!!

Let's hope sky do show it or ESPN.

[Linwoodictsc]

is it snowing this morning?

[ICTShop]

Just been confirmed that the game will now go ahead on Wednesday night with a 7.45pm kick off

[12th Man]

is it snowing this morning?

Its not snowing just now, If it was colder I would say we would have had a good covering of snow this morning but most of it has just turned to slush and melted.

[Proctor]

I have a feeling that Wednesday has been chosen to get the game on TV. There was no chance of it being on Sky on Tuesday but looking at the Wednesday scheduale they are showing Trans World Sport on one of their channels at that time which suggests they could put the game on.

[GMD]

Can only be a good omen that the game has been postponed to midweek for maybe a repeat when we thumped them back in the day.

[BornCaley]

Just home after getting near Perth when we heard. Should have checked before we left i suppose.
