This afternoon’s game Enterprise National League North between Brackley Town and South Shields was abandoned with just 36 minutes played.
Brackley said the referee called a halt after 20 minutes when heavy rain affected the playing surface at St James’s Park.
The goalless game was then abandoned on 36 minutes after the match got underway for two minutes.
After the decision, South Shields said to supporters who made the 472-mile round trip: “To all our supporters who made the journey today, we can only apologise for the late disappointment. We know many of you have travelled a long way to be here, and your support never goes unnoticed. Thank you for sticking with us.”
Bedford Town’s home game against Spennymoor was also delayed for 15 minutes due to the weather.
