A help or a hindrance? Rangers’ controversial call off at Dens Park on Sunday could be viewed one of two ways as Philippe Clement and his men were denied the chance to reclaim top spot in the Scottish Premiership heading into the international break.
Time will tell if it’s a positive or negative when they finally get round to playing the rearranged game next month. If they fail to get a victory then it will be a case of ‘what if’ after the team arrived ready and prepared for the original match at the weekend only to discover there was an issue with the pitch due to torrential Tayside rain 24 hours earlier.
There will now be a two-week break, at least for those not on international duty, for the Light Blues squad before they resume league action with a home game against Hibs on Saturday, March 30.
That kicks off a busy spell up until the Premiership split but just how should the Dundee postponed be viewed? Here, Record Sport looks at one of the positives and negatives of the game falling victim to the weather. Chance for injured players to recover Philippe Clement has bemoaned a lengthy injury list this season as he tries to get to the root of the problem.
