NEWPORT County's Conference National clash at home to Kidderminster Harriers today is off due to a waterlogged pitch.

The Exiles had already seen Tuesday's home clash with Braintree fall foul of the weather and downpours on Friday and Saturday morning scuppered efforts to get today's match on.

County announced a pitch inspection for Rodney Parade but there was no rescuing the contest.

Groundsman Mark Jones posted pictures of the waterlogged surface on Twitter and wrote the following. "@Newport County does it ever stop raining? Ground staff worked like Trojans all week and it's just filled up before our eyes, #saturated."
