Nantwich Town’s midweek clash against Gainsborough has been postponed after a Dabbers player tested positive for Covid-19 virus.
A number of players underwent tests yesterday after some reported feeling unwell after their FA Cup victory against Barwell on Saturday.
Chairman Jon Gold said they booked and undertook tests “as a matter of urgency and precaution”.
He added: “This has so far resulted in one positive test and we await results on the rest of the squad.
“However, as a matter of protocol and safety and in consultation with the league and Public Health England, tomorrow’s away game at Gainsborough has been postponed.
“We will await the outcome of the remaining tests and seek further guidance once these are known, before determining if and when future games can be played.
“We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause, especially to our hosts at Gainsborough.
“But I am sure that you will appreciate that since the return of Football, the health and safety of all of our players, volunteers, employees and supporters, is of the utmost importance and I am sure that you will join us in wishing everyone affected by this, a speedy and healthy recovery.”
Meanwhile, Nantwich have been drawn away at Merseyside club Marine in the third qualifying round of the FA Cup.
