Rangers will receive a windfall from Dundee as compensation for the travel costs incurred with the game being postponed twice, according to the Daily Record.

The newspaper reported via its online edition on 7 June that the SPFL ruled in favour of Gers as they had made the trip to Dundee on both occasions with the game being called off a few hours before kick-off.

The Ibrox outfit were left fuming by the developments and had slammed Dundee for their "negligence and unprofessionalism," demanding the cost of travel and overnight expenses.

SPFL absolutely spot on the rule in favour of Rangers

The SPFL's decision to rule in favour of Gers in the compensation dispute with Dundee as they incurred significant travel and accommodation expenses due to the repeated postponements of their matches at Dens Park.

These costs were a direct result of Dundee's negligence and failure to maintain their pitch, which led to the games being called off.

The SPFL have a responsibility to ensure that clubs adhere to league rules and regulations.

Dundee's repeated breaches of these rules, including the failure to provide a suitable playing surface, warranted disciplinary action.

The SPFL's ruling not only holds Dundee accountable for their actions but also sends a clear message to other clubs about the importance of maintaining their facilities to a professional standard.
