MALDON and Tiptree have promised to make their rearranged game with Brightlingsea Regent free of charge for everyone after last night's match between the two sides was abandoned due to a floodlight failure.

The Jammers had taken the lead in the Pitching In Isthmian League division north clash thanks to Matthew Price's 22nd-minute strike when the lights went out, a few minutes later.

A 15-minute cooling off period for the lights took place after they went out, in an attempt for the match to restart.

 

But the match had to be abandoned, much to the frustration of players, staff and spectators alike.

Maldon say that that the date of the rearranged fixture will be announced in the future and will be free of charge for everyone.
