Irish Premiership: Duncan Ferguson's first game as Glentoran boss postponed

Duncan Ferguson's first game as Glentoran manager against Ballymena United has been postponed because of a waterlogged pitch.

The Glens were set to host the Sky Blues at the Oval on Saturday at 15:00 BST, but, after a pitch inspection at 12:00, the decision was taken to call the game off.

The Everton legend, who was confirmed as Glentoran boss on Monday , will now take charge of his new team for the first time away to Coleraine on Friday, 30 October at 19:45 GMT, live on BBC iPlayer.

A yellow Met Office weather warning is in place across Northern Ireland from 10:00 BST on Saturday until 12:00 GMT on Sunday.

There is also an amber weather warning in place for Saturday night with strong winds of up to 75mph expected.

Saturday's Women's Challenge Cup final between Glentoran and Cliftonville was also postponed on Friday because of the weather warning.
