A number of Saturday's games have had to be postponed due to the cold snap sweeping the country.

Last weekend's fixture list was decimated by the freezing conditions and a number of games in the Football League have already fallen by the wayside.

The Championship clash between Crystal Palace and Doncaster at Selhurst Park has been called off after the ground failed a pitch inspection on Friday morning.

Temperatures continued to plunge overnight and a decision was taken on Saturday morning to scrap Peterborough's home match against West Ham.

Barnsley's clash at home to Birmingham has also been postponed because of a frozen pitch at Oakwell.
