Second time unlucky – Vale’s game with Swindon is called off
Port Vale’s re-arranged game against Swindon Town has been postponed due to a waterlogged pitch.
The tie was called off after a pitch inspection held at midday.
Referee Peter Bankes assessed the playing surface and decided to call off the match due to the heavy rainfall overnight and poor weather forecast for this afternoon.
It is bad luck for both clubs as the original match – earlier this year – was also called off due to bad weather.
