Forfar’s abandoned Scottish Cup tie against Linlithgow Rose rearranged for next Tuesday

Forfar’s William Hill Scottish replay against Linlithgow Rose has been rescheduled for next Tuesday evening with a 7.45pm kick-off.

The game between the two sides was postponed after a major electrical fault caused the floodlights to go out, the first time this has happened since they were installed in 1972.

Before referee Stephen Finnie decided to call a halt, there had been flares thrown from the away support with the pitch shrouded in smoke.

Now, after talks with the SFA and Linlithgow Rose, a new date has been arranged.

In a statement, Forfar said: “Following discussions today with all relevant parties, a second attempt will be made to play the William Hill Scottish Cup fourth round replay against Linlithgow Rose at Station Park on Tuesday, January 26th with a 7.45pm kick-off.

“The vouchers distributed at last night’s abandoned fixture will be valid for this fixture.

“For non-voucher holders, admission charges will be £10 for adults, £5 concessions.

“An announcement will be made by Forfar Athletic on Thursday in regard to how refunds will be distributed to those unable to attend the fixture on Tuesday the 26th.”

Earlier, the Angus club had apologised for the floodlight failure, saying: “Forfar Athletic officials are still distraught this morning at the abandonment of the William Hill Scottish Cup replay with Linlithgow Rose.

“The floodlight failure was obviously outwith the club’s control and was indeed the first such failure since floodlighting was first installed at the ground away back in 1972.

“Once the problem was diagnosed last night by the club’s electrician, it was realised that an instant repair was impossible and consequently referee Stephen Finnie had no other option than to call the match off.

“Following a further assessment of the problem this morning, discussions will be ongoing today with the SFA, Linlithgow Rose and the authorities in regard to a re-arranged date.

“Discussions will also continue in regard to the crowd disorder at last night’s game which was another disappointing feature of the evening.

“In the meantime we would again apologise to all in attendance last night and ask for their patience and understanding.”
