A FROZEN pitch has resulted in Dunfermline's second round Scottish Cup clash against Greenock Morton on Saturday being postponed.
The Cappielow surface has been deemed unplayable following a pitch inspection today (Friday).
Officials from both sets of clubs have confirmed that the tie will now take place on Tuesday night, January 12, with a 7.45pm kick-off.
This means that Dunfermline's Championship match against Hearts at Tynecastle will now move to a later date, as cup competitions take priority for rescheduling.
Morton's announcement also included news that three first-team players at the club had tested positive for coronavirus, with their self-isolation period set to end on Monday evening, next week.
