The match between Exeter City and Charlton Athletic has been postponed due to adverse weather conditions that have made the pitch at Exeter’s St James Park unsafe for play. Persistent heavy rainfall over the past few days has left the playing surface waterlogged, creating a risk of player injuries and making it impossible to ensure fair play conditions. The safety of the players, officials, and spectators is always the priority, and following a thorough pitch inspection by match officials, the decision was made to call off the fixture.
In addition to the weather, concerns over the state of the surrounding facilities, including drainage and access, contributed to the postponement. Although both teams were ready to compete, the match will now be rescheduled for a later date, with an official announcement expected soon.
Supporters who had made arrangements to attend the match are advised to retain their tickets, as they will remain valid for the rescheduled date. Further updates will be provided via the club’s official channels. Both Exeter City and Charlton Athletic will continue to monitor weather forecasts and work with the relevant authorities to ensure a safe and smooth rescheduling of the fixture.
