Sunday switches for Dundee United and St Johnstone
ByIan Roache
Dundee United and St Johnstone will both have to wait a day longer than expected to kick off their Ladbrokes Premiership campaigns.
Saints’ trip to Tynecastle to face newly-promoted Hearts will now be played on Sunday, August 2 (12.30pm KO) and will be televised live on BT Sport.
The Tangerines will also start their league season on the Sunday instead of Saturday, with the match against the Dons (3.30 KO) being broadcast by Sky.
The first action will take place the previous day when champions Celtic launch the defence of their title against Ross County at Parkhead.
