The match between Livingston and Falkirk, originally scheduled to take place at the Tony Macaroni Arena, has been postponed due to unforeseen circumstances. The decision was made by the Scottish Professional Football League (SPFL) after consulting with both clubs and relevant authorities.
In an official statement, the SPFL cited “adverse weather conditions” as the primary reason for the postponement. Heavy rainfall in the region had rendered the pitch unplayable, with standing water affecting the playing surface’s safety. Despite efforts to improve conditions, including covering parts of the pitch, officials determined that continuing with the fixture could pose a risk to the players’ safety.
Both teams were informed of the situation ahead of time, and fans were advised to stay updated for information regarding the rescheduled date. Season ticket holders and those who had purchased tickets for the match were also reassured that their tickets would remain valid for the new date once confirmed.
The fixture’s postponement comes as a blow to both teams, who are aiming for crucial points in their respective campaigns. Livingston and Falkirk will now shift focus to their next scheduled fixtures, while football fans eagerly await a new date for this highly anticipated encounter.
