Fir Park flooding leads to Motherwell-ICT call-off (original) (raw)

Motherwell's match against Inverness Caledonian Thistle has been called off because of a waterlogged pitch.

Match official John Beaton inspected the Fir Park playing surface at 08:00 GMT on Saturday and decided the pitch was unplayable.

Motherwell say sustained heavy rainfall has led to flooding in the area in front of the East Stand at the halfway line and at the East/South corner.

No date has yet been announced for the rearranged fixture.

The club had hoped that the pitch would have dried out overnight.
