Motherwell's home game with Celtic at Fir Park next Sunday has also been postponed in the wake of Phil O'Donnell's death.

Motherwell's match with Hibernian, scheduled for Wednesday, was cancelled last night and today the game against the champions was also postponed after a plea from the O'Donnell family.

Scottish Premier League chairman Lex Gold announced:  ‘We understand from Phil's family that they would appreciate it if the Motherwell v Celtic game scheduled for Sunday January 6 could be postponed.

‘Both clubs are happy to meet the request and we have called the game off.’
