Braintree Town's FA Trophy game against Ebbsfleet United has been postponed because of a waterlogged pitch at the Miles Smith Stadium.

After heavy rain on Friday night, one area of the pitch - the goalmouth at the Quag End of the ground - was deemed too wet for the game to go ahead.

A referee carried out two inspections in the hours leading up to the scheduled 3pm kick-off but despite the hard efforts of groundstaff to get the game on, the surface remained too wet for the game to be played.

The last-16 tie will now be played at the Miles Smith Stadium on Tuesday at 7.45pm.
