| Pressure testing in the area around Dens Park meant there was not enough water for showers for both the first and youth teams and, accordingly, the senior pros were told to stay away.
Caretaker bosses Bobby Mann and Barry Smith, however, have decided it will not be an extra holiday and the players will be back at work tomorrow, their normal midweek day of rest.
Owner Peter Marr, meanwhile, has confirmed the meetings he had hoped to hold with senior players tomorrow to discuss further wage cuts have now been cancelled because he has other business commitments to take care of.
Unaffected by the cuts will be the young players who were introduced to the team this season, but the likes of Tam McManus, Steven Robb, Lee Wilkie, Garry Brady and Derek Soutar are to be asked to take a second salary reduction in the space of a year.
This time, there is set to be resistance from the players and how strong that is will emerge once the sit-downs are re-arranged, probably for next week.
That, and continuing work on a budget for next season, could see interviews for the post of new manager put on the back burner until well into next month. |
