Luton Postpone York Game
02 September 2009 15:05:00
Blue Square Premier club Luton Town has postponed a home game on police advice because a protest march is planned for the town on the same day.
The game against York City, due to take place at Kenilworth Road on 19th September, will be rearranged.
The English Defence League, one of four groups banned from marching in Luton, is planning a protest on the same day.
Bedfordshire Police said it advised the Hatters to cancel because the force cannot police both events.
A spokeswoman added that the potential protest was classed as a large event and officers would be unable to provide support within the town centre and at the Kenilworth Road ground.
