Ahead of tomorrow’s home Scottish Cup tie against Dunfermline Athletic, preparations continue to build up to another busy Firhill matchday.
Having received a number of enquiries relating to the playing surface, from both home and away supporters, we can confirm that the undersoil heating system has been in continuous operation since Wednesday. Pitch protection measures had already been taken with the utilisation of pitch covers since early this week which protected the surface ahead of the frosty spell over the last few days.
The undersoil heating will remain on through to Saturday, with the pitch covers lifted on Saturday morning to ensure no issues with the surface for tomorrow’s Scottish Cup tie.
The surrounding areas at Firhill will be treated, if required, to ensure a safe and clear arrival for all spectators attending tomorrow’s fixture with Dunfermline Athletic.
All supporters are encouraged to purchase their tickets in advance for tomorrow’s match using the links below.
