'We are making the decision now to ensure all our fans are notified well in advance and equally for the visiting team and fans who would be making the long trip.

'Details of the rearranged fixture date will be announced shortly. For season ricket holders and advances ticket sales, your ticket will be automatically transferred to the rearranged fixture date.'
