"We understand the frustration recent postponements have caused and we would like to thank Accrington Stanley for helping us to fulfil these two fixtures.

"Season tickets will be valid as usual and for other home and away supporters it is still pay on the gate.

"We’ll also confirm stand arrangements on Thursday and issue a ground guide.

"There will be a further announcement regarding the Oldham Athletic fixture and ticket collections for that game once everything has been confirmed and resolved.”
