Early call to postpone Braintree's game against Southport
4:09pm Friday 15th February 2013 in Sport By Simon Spurgeon
Braintree Town's Blue Square Bet Premier game against Southport has been postponed because of a waterlogged Amlin Stadium pitch.
The Iron had been due to play Southport on Saturday, but the game was called-off on Friday afternoon following a pitch inspection.
An early decision was made to prevent the visitors from travelling with little hope that standing water would have drained in time for the kick-off.
A re-arranged date for the game is still to be announced and Braintree's next game is now their home fixture against Grimsby Town on Tuesday.
