Rochdale's National League game at home to Boston United has been postponed because of a waterlogged pitch.

Heavy rain led to a 10.30 GMT pitch inspection at the Crown Oil Arena, but the match official Stuart Morland deemed the surface unplayable.

Sixth-placed Dale were seeking to close the gap on Oldham, in fifth, and stay ahead of the play-off chasing pack.

The Pilgrims lie second-bottom and five points from safety following their promotion from National League North last season.

Rochdale are due to visit AFC Fylde on Thursday, with Boston hosting play-off chasing Solihull Moors the same afternoon.

A new date for the postponed match will be released in due course.
