TODAY'S Thurlow Nunn League derby between Wivenhoe Town and FC Clacton has been postponed, due to a waterlogged pitch at the Maple Tree Cars Stadium.
The sides had been due to do battle in a 3pm kick-off.
However, as a result of yesterday's rain, a pitch inspection was called for earlier this morning and the game was eventually called off just after 10am.
A new date will now be arranged for the new year.
