WREXHAM'S League Two clash with Forest Green has been postponed due to a waterlogged pitch.
An official statement from the Welsh side read: "Following a pitch inspection this morning, we can confirm that today’s fixture against Forest Green Rovers has been called off due to a waterlogged pitch.
"After a heavy downpour of rain overnight, the pitch was deemed unplayable and failed a pitch inspection at 11:30am.
"Details for the rearranged fixture and ticket information will be communicated in due course.
"We can confirm however that all supporters who travelled on Official Supporter Travel will be offered free transport to the rearranged fixture."
Fans were left devastated following the announcement, with one person tweeting: "Imagine if the EFL actually cared about the fans and ensured inspections were done in a timely manner! Pathetic."
Another added: "Stuck on the M54 for no reason then, absolutely brilliant."
A third person wrote: "Should have called it off earlier, no thought for us travelling fans."
While a fourth commented: "Forest Green v Wrexham is postponed. A lot of disappointed Americans on this train."
The match is one of five League Two fixtures to have been postponed this morning.
