AFC Wimbledon vs Walsall Match Postponed Due to Adverse Weather Conditions
Sky Sports has confirmed that the League Two clash between AFC Wimbledon and Walsall, originally scheduled for this weekend, has been postponed due to adverse weather conditions. Prolonged heavy rainfall in the days leading up to the match has left the pitch at the Cherry Red Records Stadium waterlogged and unplayable.
Officials conducted a pitch inspection early this morning and deemed the surface unsafe for both players and fans, citing the risk of injuries and difficulty in maintaining match standards. Wimbledon released a statement expressing disappointment over the postponement but emphasized that player and spectator safety remain the priority.
Walsall also acknowledged the decision, thanking their traveling fans for their understanding and assuring them that the club will coordinate with the EFL to determine a rescheduled date. Tickets for the postponed fixture will remain valid for the new date, which is expected to be announced in the coming days.
Both clubs are working closely with the league and local authorities to ensure that future fixtures are unaffected by the current weather challenges. Fans are encouraged to check their respective club websites and social media platforms for further updates.
