Market Rasen Town’s East Lincs Combination trip to GB Kitchens was called off by a waterlogged pitch, as was Brigg Town CIC Reserves’ Lincolnshire League clash at bottom side Nettleham.

This weekend, Brigg Town face a tough home fixture with top-six side Retford, while their Reserves head to Louth Town on Saturday for a 3pm kick-off.

And Market Rasen Town entertain Alford Town at Rase Park in the Town Trophy. Kick-off 2pm.
