We don`t normally start playing until 4 pm anyway so this could be good news

Very quick, and equally as funny.

Is this the only game going ahead in Scotland?

Only other lower league game is Montrose v Annan which has a delayed kick off of 2 hours to 17.00.

Premier games on all with delayed kick offs apart from the Ross County Motherwell which ironically given the distance kicked off on time, more than likely because Motherwell travelled yesterday

Aye but the negative element will be saying we`ll be two down in the first 15 minutes.

County v Well was delayed due to VAR issues I think

The club just posted this on social media.

#DAFC are extremely disappointed at the very limited additional time available to prepare for this afternoon`s William Hill Championship fixture.

Our team and staff have endured a horrendous journey down to Ayrshire to fulfil our fixture, traveling for over 5 hours. A number of our players also struggled through awful conditions to get to team bus, including one who was involved in a minor road crash. Furthermore, the club had already advised supporters not to travel due to conditions along with Police warnings across the central belt.

As the travel plans caused so much disruption, DAFC requested further time to ensure players could have time for nutrition and subsequent digestion along with adequate time for mental and physical preparation for the match. An extra 45 minutes was defined as adequate - something which the club disagrees strongly on.

We believe that our player`s welfare is compromised by this decision.

Finally we would like to thanks all supporters backing the club at Somerset Park and from home this afternoon and wish those returning from Ayr a safe journey home.

Isn`t this a new thing, allowing so many games to have the kick-off delayed on the day? I don`t remember it happening before.

Should have told the ref the time that we would be ready to start at and refuse to budge. Would probably get a small fine and plead the case to get it dismissed.
No point in allowing it to become an excuse for losing later as its too late by then.

The SPFL have had to sanction late kicks due to their own ineptitude in not following Police advice not to travel where there has been ample warning to that effect.
