Philippe Clement has accused Dundee secretary Eric Drysdale of showing a lack of respect to his club and the Rangers fans with his attempt to blame the problems with the Dens Park pitch on, and says that players and managers may be put off coming to Scotland if such a fiasco is allowed to happen again.
“This is now 2024 and all over Europe this doesn’t happen. Find me one team who have had five games postponed because of the weather. I’ve never seen one in my life.because it’s their life. I know that because I’ve seen it at other clubs and with Rangers it’s definitely the case. That’s why I say we’ll play anywhere, it’s for the fans.”
“If everybody says, ‘ok guys, it’s normal. You go to Dundee two times, but you cannot play because the pitch is under water, although you trained a little bit’. You don’t want that. “It is something that has happened and now it needs to be very clear to find solutions — how can you avoid this ever happening again?“I love Scottish football, really. I love to be here. I think that, in moments, Scottish people speak too negatively about Scottish football and the things around it.
