Friday's Championship match between Rotherham and Ipswich has been postponed after Storm Babet caused flooding by the stadium.
The River Don, which runs next to the New York Stadium, burst its banks on Friday afternoon after heavy rainfall.
The Millers said the pitch remained playable but they were left with "no choice but to postpone the game".
"It goes without saying we are obviously disappointed for fans due to attend," they said in a club statement.

Blinding work by the millers. Non-stop rain for 24 hrs, Amber weather warning in place but no RUFC insist the game will go ahead. A wasted trip in treacherous conditions for 2,500 town fans whilst people around the UK are dying.

If they choose to travel to a fixture, that's their choice. Games are called off for many reasons. Relax a bit yeah.
