Carlisle United's postponed trip to Cheltenham Town has been rearranged.

The Blues were due to take on the Robins last weekend but a frozen pitch at the Completely-Suzuki Stadium put paid to the game.

United will now make the trip to Gloucestershire in the closing stages of the season on Tuesday, April 9.

The game will kick off at 7.45pm and tickets for the original game will be valid for the new date.

It will be Carlisle's penultimate away game of the campaign and their fourth-last fixture of the League One season overall.

Should the Blues' survival hopes still be alive by that stage it could prove a crucial evening against one of their closest rivals.

Cheltenham are currently third bottom, three points ahead of the second-bottom Cumbrians.

"If you purchased tickets for the original game but can no longer attend the original fixture, please contact the ticket office on 0330 094 5930 option 1 or email ticket.printing@carlisleunited.co.uk," added the Blues.
