Date confirmed for Carlisle United's rearranged trip to Newport
A new date has been confirmed for Carlisle United's trip to Newport County.

It has now been rearranged for Tuesday, February 11 with a 7.45pm kick-off.
Carlisle say the game in south Wales will see tickets bought for the original fixture still valid.
Anyone who would like a refund should return their tickets to the Brunton Park ticket office before 4pm on Friday, February 7, or for information email ticketoffice@carlisleunited.co.uk.

The original game, scheduled for Saturday, December 7, was postponed the day before because of safety concerns during the storm.
Parts of south Wales were subject to red and amber weather warnings and the decision was made to avoid unnecessary travel for fans during the adverse conditions.
Carlisle had been just 20 minutes from their team hotel on the Friday when the announcement was made, as the team turned around and returned to Cumbria.
The rearrangement means two away trips in the space of four days for the Blues, who go to Grimsby Town on Saturday, February 8.
After the Newport trip Mike Williamson's side will be back on home soil for the visit of Colchester United on Saturday, February 15.
