NEWPORT County AFC have confirmed that their home clash with Accrington Stanley, originally scheduled for Saturday, October 25, will now take place at 3pm on Sunday, October 26.

The change is due to Newport Gwent Dragons' European Rugby Challenge Cup home clash with Newcastle Falcons on Friday, October 24.

Competition rules dictate that there must be a reserve day for every fixture in case of postponements and County have therefore been forced to move the Accrington match back by 24 hours.
