Storm Darragh: Notts County match against Colchester United postponed due to wild weather

The match was supposed to take place at 3pm today (on Saturday 7 December).

It comes after scoreboards at Meadow Lane were damaged in Storm Darragh.

According to the club, the decision to postpone was made "in the interests of spectator and player safety".

Two panels in the Kop scoreboard came loose in the high winds.

Notts County said: "Following conversations with this afternoon’s match officials, our opponents, the EFL and the Sports Ground Safety Authority, it’s been agreed that, particularly in light of this afternoon’s weather forecast, these loose panels pose a significant risk.

"Tickets and hospitality bookings will remain valid for the rearranged match, a date for which will be confirmed in due course. We’re unable to process any refund requests until the new date is set."
