CORSHAM Town's derby clash with Chippenham Park tonight has failed to escape the heavy rainfall.

The pitch at the Southbank fell victime to today's washout and this evening's scheduled local derby has been postponed.

Trevor Rawlings' Corsham are due to travel to second-placed Shepton Mallet this weekend whilst Dave Ferris' Park aren't in action until next Tuesday evening, when they make the trip to near neighbours Devizes Town.

Meanwhile, Westbury United's game at Chard Town was also rained off, with Matt Bown's men due to host Barnstaple Town this weekend.
