"Two of this weekend's SPFL 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 have both been called off because of snow in the north-east. There are further inspections scheduled for Saturday morning with the Championship fixture between Dunfermline and Ross County in doubt, as well as Hamilton Academical's match against East Fife in League 1."
"There was already a lack of certainty over the latter with Hamilton players considering not playing after they were not paid on time. Caretaker manager Darian MacKinnon has assured fans he will be able to field a team if the match goes ahead, but admitted the club is in a "critical" condition. In League 2, there will be pitch inspections on Saturday morning at both Stirling Albion and The Spartans, who play Annan Athletic and Dumbarton, respectively."
