Snow is forecast for today and because of the journey facing the visitors, a decision on whether the game goes ahead will need to be made in good time.

Guernsey are expected to bring around 200 supporters to The Salts and Rye have already received quite a few enquiries regarding matchday programmes. Radio station BBC Guernsey intends to provide full match commentary.

If the match is postponed, it is likely to be rearranged for the following Saturday. Follow @SimonNewstead on Twitter and visit www.ryeandbattleobserver.co.uk to find out. Kick-off is due to be at 3pm.

See today’s Rye Observer for a full preview of the match.
