A number of fixtures were postponed due to waterlogged pitches on Saturday

Table topping Kings Langley were hoping for a bumper crowd as they offered free entry for their clash with Hoddesdon Town, but the game was called off on Saturday morning after the pitch failed an inspection.

Tring, meanwhile, were set to take on Holmer Green, but that game also fell victim to a waterlogged playing surface.

On Saturday, title favourites Kings entertain Colney Heath, while Tring host London Colney at The Grass Roots Stadium.

It looks set to be a tough encounter for Athletic as London Colney are currently on an unbeaten run of nine league games, of which they have won seven and drawn two.
