We saw a few of our supporters walking back to their cars and it was very disappointing to have the game called off so late in the day.[LNB] We want to progress in this competition and we want as many supporters as possible to make the return trip. It is clear both the club and the team will benefit from this. Those that travelled deserve a free return trip and we would like to extend this to other supporters as well.[LNB] Mitchell added: It was the correct decision to postpone the game, even though it was made so late in the day.
