Queens Game Off

Morton suffered at the hands of the weather again today as their fixture against Queen of the South was postponed.

The game was called off this morning due to the fact that the Palmerston pitch was frozen and that the weather was not expected to get any better tonight or tomorrow.

A statement on Queens' official club website says: "Due to the pitch at Palmerston being frozen and with further low temperatures forecast for tonight and tomorrow during the day this game has been cancelled."

The BBC's Keir Murray interviewed Allan Moore about the club's alternative training arrangements, and also spoke to Ton groundsman Mark Farrell and chief executive Gillian Donaldson about the effects of the postponements, which you can listen to here:
