Forfar's Scottish Cup fifth round clash with Rangers has been postponed due to a frozen pitch.

With the cold snap continuing to wreak havoc across the country, Station Park is the latest ground to fall foul of the inclement weather.

Third Division Forfar will have been relishing the prospect of going head-to-head with SPL giants Rangers and attempting to cause a surprise upset.

The game was given the go-ahead after a pitch inspection on Saturday but a further ruling on Sunday morning has deemed the playing surface to be dangerous.

As a result, the game will now be played on Wednesday 18th February.

The quarter final draw, which was scheduled to be held at Station Park after the game, will now take place at Hampden Park on Monday.
