Doncaster Rovers have postponed their match against Harrogate Town today after a pitch inspection this morning.

The club say parts of the pitch are frozen after days of cold weather.

Tickets for the game remain valid for the rearranged fixture - details of which will be confirmed in due course.

Doncaster Rovers say:

"Rovers' scheduled match against Harrogate Town has been postponed on safety grounds.

"An inspection of the playing surface at the Eco-Power Stadium was carried out by the match official at 9am on Saturday and found areas of the pitch were frozen following several days of sub-zero temperatures.

"The Eco-Power Stadium ground staff were tireless in their efforts to ensure the game went ahead, with frost covers laid on the pitch more than a week ago."
