Ulster game against Scarlets postponed

The match between Ulster and Scarlets scheduled to take place at Ravenhill this evening has been postponed.

Referee Leighton Hodges called the game off this afternoon after inspecting the pitch at the Belfast venue.

Hodges “deemed the pitch unplayable”, according to Ulster Rugby, who later said “the game is now likely to be played in March” on either Friday 7th or Friday 14th.

“Tickets for this evening’s game will be valid for the rearranged fixture,” a statement added.

“Ulster Rugby would like to thank our supporters for their understanding in these exceptional circumstances and to apologise for any inconvenience caused. for tonight’s game will be valid for the rescheduled match.”
