Rotherham United's Championship match against Ipswich Town has fallen foul of Storm Babet.
Heavy rain lashed down on Yorkshire all day on Friday, too much for the New York Stadium pitch to cope with once the River Don burst its banks. At just after 5pm the decision was taken to postpone the game, which was due to be shown live on Sky Sports, on grounds of spectator safety after a meeting between the safeyty advisory group and the Football League.
Last season, Rotherham's match at home to Cardiff City was abandoned after a torrential downpour at half-time. The Bluebirds were unhappy with the decision but the pitch was simply unable to cope with the amount of water which fell on it. The Millers spent £500,000 upgrading the pitch in the summer but it was no match for Friday's rain. A new date will be set in due course.
