Vice-chairman John Webb took the decision after this morning’s pitch inspection, declaring the pitch unplayable.

He said: “The pitch is ok down the flanks but it’s in a terrible state down the middle. It’s unplayable.”

The game, dubbed “The Big One” in posters around the town, was expected to attract a record crowd of over 450 but will now have to be rearranged.

Webb added: “We are sorry for the disappointment but these things happen. It’s just a shame because everyone has been looking forward to this game for weeks.

”Half-price tickets handed out to parents of the town’s junior sides and other special offers will instead be valid for next week’s game against Crockenhill. We look forward to seeing you there.”
