YORK City's game against Altrincham today has been called off - after staff from both teams started showing signs of coronavirus.
A statement from the club says employees from both teams have gone into self-isolation after recently having potential symptoms of the COVID-19 virus.
And they have decided to postpone the game.
It says: "Considering the circumstances and with the health of players, fans, volunteers and staff in mind, we would ask that anyone showing flu like symptoms please stay at home and seek guidance from the NHS 111 service during this time."
📝 Ourselves and Altrincham have taken the joint decision to postpone the National League North fixture scheduled for tomorrow.
