New date set for Kilmarnock V Hibernian

THE SPL match between Kilmarnock and Hibernian, which was abandoned on Sunday, has be rearranged for Wednesday 15 May (7.45pm).

The encounter at Rugby Park was stopped after a supporter in the home section, Jim Haswell, suffered a suspected heart attack. He later passed away in hospital.

The SPL’s confirmation last night swiftly allayed fears that the match may have been rescheduled for the week of the Scottish Cup final, with Hibs due to face Celtic at Hampden Park on 26 May.
