Five SPFL games off because of snow

Five of Saturday's Scottish Professional Football League matches have been postponed because of freezing weather across Scotland.

Cove Rangers v Montrose in League 1 and Elgin City v East Kilbride in League 2 were called off on Friday because of snow in the north-east.

The Championship meeting between Dunfermline Athletic and Ross County was postponed because of a frozen pitch on Saturday morning, along with Hamilton Academical versus East Fife in League 1 and Stirling Albion against Annan Athletic in League 2.

There was already a lack of certainty over Hamilton's game, with players considering not playing after they were not paid on time.

Caretaker manager Darian MacKinnon assured fans he would be able to field a team if the match went ahead at Broadwood Stadium but admitted the club is in a "critical" condition.

However, the Spartans versus Dumbarton in League 2 survived a Saturday pitch inspection.
