Tamworth encounter postponed due to frozen pitch

The Iron's home league encounter against Tamworth, scheduled for Saturday, January 20th, has been postponed due to a frozen pitch.

The Attis Arena surface was inspected by a contributory match official, with communication from the appointed match referee Dane McCarrick, following a week of harsh frost.

The covers have been on throughout the week in an attempt to protect the pitch, with areas of deep frost still evident across areas of the surface. In particular, the strip of pitch towards the AMS Stand, which gets no sunlight, remains frozen solid, and has not improved throughout the course of Friday.

The National League requires all teams to take early action regarding pitch inspections, where possible, with the club constantly in communication with the league, opposition, and officials regarding this decision.

As soon as we have a new date for the fixture, we will announce on our website and social media.

All tickets purchased remain valid for the rearranged fixture. In line with the club's terms and conditions, any refund requests will be processed once the fixture has been rearranged, and must be claimed prior to the rearranged fixture taking place.
