Accy's match against Sunderland was abandoned after 72 minutes due to a waterlogged pitch and very heavy rain. It was our highest attendance ever at our current ground......5,257. I don't know how much we'll have to pay for the re-arranged match,but i wont be going if the club ask the same price as it was today. I hope/think it should be around a tenner for adults.

You have already paid so free admission for the rearranged fixture.

Not too sure about that. Someone said if it's called off after so many minutes then the club can charge us again. I've been on rained off matches before where it's been announced over the tannoy to keep hold of your ticket stubs for proof of having been to the abandoned game. Nothing was said as we were leaving and nothing so far on the club's website. Why can't the result/score stand? I think we'd be happy(ish) with a point and so should Sunderland, as we had most of the play.

Sounds like it should never have started. Hope the rearranged match (if there is one?!) doesn't cost you anything.

I think it's more the clubs club's discretion, but as ever I could be very wrong.

It definitely shouldn't cost you though.

Unbeaten against them in 4 league games. Easy.

Took a proper hiding in the end. Didn't get to see the game but it sounds like our defence was all over the place, which says a lot about the influence and ability of Broadfoot.

Really disappointed in my team today. Well done Dundee though, who if I'm honest looked the most likely to break the deadlock even after they took off the real king Kenny.
