Date set for McCoist court clash

An anticipated courtroom battle between football hero Ally McCoist and his estranged wife is to be continued until Thursday, it was decided at the Court of Session today.

Allison McCoist had been due to ask a judge to award her a £2m (€2.9m) divorce pay-off and an allowance of £4,000 (€5,800) per month following the star’s highly-publicised affair with actress Patsy Kensit.
