This afternoon’s scheduled visit of Notts County has been postponed due to a waterlogged pitch.
Heavy rainfall over the past few hours in BD8 has meant that the surface at the University of Bradford Stadium is now unplayable, having passed a pitch inspection earlier this morning.
Match referee David Rock assessed the pitch both virtually and physically earlier today, deeming it playable, though conditions over the past few hours have meant the fixture can no longer be held, despite the best efforts of club officials to ensure the match could take place.
A meeting was held from 1.00pm today with managers of both teams to discuss all options, including the possibility of a later kick-off time. The match officials gave the match every opportunity to be played, which we believed it could, and are fully appreciative of the support and cooperation of the officials.
We would like to take this opportunity to apologise to supporters planning on attending the game for the inconvenience caused.
All tickets purchased will be valid for the rearranged fixture, details of which will be confirmed in due course.
