Another home fixture for New Street has been postponed.

Andover New Streets North Hants Senior Cup fixture against local rivals Andover Town FC was postponed, for the second time, due to an unplayable surface at the DH Property Services Stadium on Tuesday, January 14.

The pitch inspection conducted on the day of the fixture deemed the playing surface not fit for use.

In a post on X, Andover New Street said: "Bad News! Despite our best efforts, the referee has now deemed the pitch unplayable."

Their opposition for the fixture, Andover Town FC, took to Facebook and said: "Tonight's match with Andover New Street has been postponed."

The fixture has been rescheduled for Tuesday, January 20.

New Street have not played a fixture since Saturday, December 27, when they beat Hamworthy Recreation away from home in the Wessex Premier Division.

They have also not played a home fixture since Saturday, December 20, which saw them lose out 2-0 to Petersfield Town in what was a playoff battle.

New Street will now be on the road for their Wessex Premier Division game at the Meadens Skoda Arena on Saturday, January 17, where they will face a high-flying Brockenhurst side who occupy fifth place in the league.

Andover Town FC will be travelling this weekend as well, but to compete against Folland Sports in the fourth round of the Hampshire Saturday Trophy.
