The match between King’s Lynn Town and Farsley Celtic AFC has been postponed due to unforeseen circumstances. According to a statement from the clubs, the decision was made following a combination of factors, including adverse weather conditions that impacted the condition of the pitch. The pitch at The Walks, King’s Lynn, was deemed unplayable after a period of heavy rainfall, leaving areas of standing water and rendering the surface unsafe for both players and officials.
In addition to weather-related issues, logistical challenges surrounding the availability of key personnel and travel disruptions were also contributing factors. With both teams traveling considerable distances, safety concerns around travel in the current conditions played a role in the decision to call off the match. The postponement is in line with the league’s commitment to ensuring the safety of all involved, particularly in situations where the playing surface or travel conditions could pose a risk.
The match will be rescheduled at a later date, and supporters are advised to keep an eye on both clubs’ official channels for updates on when the fixture will take place. Fans who have already purchased tickets will be informed about how to either exchange them or receive refunds. Both clubs expressed their disappointment but stressed the importance of prioritizing player and supporter safety.
