ALL local football matches were washed out by Saturday's rain.

At one point it looked as though Radcliffe Borough's game in the Unibond Division One North at Clitheroe would go ahead, but the referee postponed it 15 minutes before the kick-off.

The cancellations also affected the entire programme in the North West Counties League involving Atherton LR, Atherton Collieries, Ramsbottom United and Daisy Hill.
