Livingston Match Postponed

Last updated : 08 January 2005 By Nach0king
Along with Gretna vs. Dundee United and Ross County vs. Airdrie, Livingston vs. Morton has been postponed due to bad weather. Heavy rain in the Livingston area has put paid to today's match, which has now been rescheduled for Tuesday 11th January at 19:45.

Yesterday, it was reported that an early pitch inspection would take place due to torrential rain in West Lothian. Livingston have had problems with their playing surface before, and were perhaps reluctant to risk the possibility of today's match chopping up the pitch and jeopardising future ties.

An interesting outcome of this disappointing postponement is that Morton and Livingston will go into Tuesday's tie knowing who their potential 4th round opponents are. The draw for the fourth round is to be made on Monday evening at 6:45pm, and to be broadcast live on BBC Reporting Scotland, Sky Sports News and Radio Scotland.
