A new date for the Championship clash between Arbroath and Partick Thistle has been revealed.
The two sides were due to face off at Gayfield last weekend but strong winds from Storm Malik forced the game to be called off.
Now, the SPFL has confirmed that the fixture will take place on Tuesday March 1, with a 7.45pm kick off.

Early call off
Saturday’s game was called off shortly after 11am after Arbroath chiefs called for an early inspection of the playing conditions to prevent supporters travelling through the amber sever weather warning.
Local referee Mike Roncone deemed Gayfield unplayable almost immediately and the game was postponed.
Had a fantastic day in Hospitality yesterday. The game was called off but the management team still came through to the club to entertain the guests. I am sure I speak for every fan of the club in saying how much respect we have for everyone involved with the club. We'll done! https://t.co/l0X3TmsDu2

The call off wasn’t enough to stop those booked up in hospitality from enjoying their day.
Boss Dick Campbell still travelled to the ground to entertain guests with a question and answer session and recalled stories from his time in management.
Arbroath are back in action tomorrow night when they host Kilmarnock in a top of the league clash.
