Morecambe and Kidderminster Harriers' FA Trophy tie is called off
Morecambe’s scheduled FA Trophy match at Kidderminster Harriers on Saturday has become another victim of the current wintry weather.
The two teams were due to meet at Aggborough in round four, but will now play each other next Tuesday, January 13 (7.45pm).
A Harriers statement said: “A match official made the decision following a pitch inspection at Aggborough Stadium on Friday afternoon.
“Thursday’s significant rain, snowfall and ice have left the surface waterlogged and, combined with a further drop in temperatures overnight into Saturday, there is no prospect of the pitch being playable come Saturday afternoon, with the immediate surrounds of Aggborough also likely to be a risk to supporters given the frost.”
All tickets purchased for tomorrow’s match will be valid for the rearranged game.
Both teams will know their incentive for winning by kick-off, given the draw for round five will take place on talkSPORT2 at approximately 3.15pm on Monday.
