Wirral made the long journey to Sheffield after being assured that the game at Tigers was playable only to find that the pitch was still covered by a couple of inches of snow. The parts of the pitch where the snow had been cleared, although muddy on top, was hard close to the surface so after discussions between the Captains it was decided the match would have to be postponed; a decision the referee agreed with.
The game will be played next week (14th Feb), with the option of playing on the Wirral offered to the Tigers if conditions in Yorkshire are still poor.
