Heavy rain forces Cumbrian rugby derby delay
Published at 14:25, Sunday, 16 September 2012
Kick-off in the west Cumbrian rugby league derby has been delayed by the weather.
The match between Workington Town and Haven was due to be a 3pm kick-off.
But heavy rain has left standing water on the pitch at Workington's Derwent Park stadium.
Efforts are underway to pump water off the pitch in time for a 4pm kick-off.
Heavy rain showers have fallen throughout Cumbria through last night and so far today.
