Workington are waiting to hear from Mossley whether tomorrow’s NPL West game can go ahead.
Mossley have announced that they will make a pitch inspection at 3.30pm this afternoon but pictures of the Seel Park playing surface don’t look promising.
The Reds have had their last two games postponed – at home to Bootle and at Colne and a third postponement would start to produce a fixture backlog.
Reds currently lie third in the table with early pacemakers Mossley now down to seventh and like Reds they last played on December 3 with a 1-1 draw at Hanley Town.
Their game at home to Witton Albion last Saturday fell victim to the weather and the pitch has had no time to recover since then. A thaw is forecast but that is likely to come too late to save a lot of Saturday’s games.
The next scheduled game for the Reds is the home fixture on Boxing Day against Kidsgrove Athletic, a holiday fixture that should bring in a decent crowd.
