WIMBORNE Town will no longer travel for tomorrow's fixture at Gosport Borough, due to concerns over fuel issues.
James Stokoe's Magpies had been set to head to Hampshire for the Southern League Premier clash.
However, following national panic buying of petrol in recent days, many stations around the area have been closed after running out of fuel.
That problem has filtered down to non-league football, with many matches called off.
And Wimborne's contest at Privett Park is the latest to fall.
A statement from Gosport read: "As a result of fuel shortages, Wednesday night's match with Wimborne Town has been postponed.
"We will update you with the date of the re-arranged fixture as soon as possible."
In the same division, Poole Town are in action tonight, travelling to Salisbury.
