Storm Éowyn forces GAA league postponements, Celtic match off due to stadium damage
THE AFTERMATH OF Storm Éowyn has impacted the opening weekend of the GAA football league with tomorrow’s game between Kerry and Donegal postponed.
Weather conditions are preventing Donegal from travelling to play the Division 1 football game in Fitzgerald Stadium in Killarney, which was due to take place tomorrow afternoon at 1.45pm.
The CCCC of the GAA will confirm re-fixture details on Monday.
The game was due to broadcast live on TG4 with the station now set to televise the Roscommon-Down game in Division 2 at 2pm.
Today’s Division 3 football game between Leitrim and Laois has been postponed due to electrical issues caused by the storm in Ballinamore, where the match was due to be held.
It has been refixed for tomorrow afternoon at the same venue in Sean O’Heslin Park at 2pm.
Two hurling league games have been postponed today, the Division 1B game involving Westmeath and Laois due to a frozen pitch in Mullingar, and the Division 3 match between Mayo and Cavan.
Meanwhile today’s Scottish Premiership matcb between Celtic and Dundee has been called off, due to stadium damage caused by Storm Éowyn.
Celtic confirmed this afternoon’s game has been refixed for 5 February with a 7.45pm kick-off.
“Unfortunately, due to the stadium damage sustained yesterday we have been advised that we are unable to proceed with today’s match.
“While clearly this is disappointing, the safety of our supporters will always be our priority.”
