Notts County's game with Morecambe had to be abandoned at 0-0 just 10 minutes after kick-off after a huge storm waterlogged the Meadow Lane pitch.

The game had promised to be an entertaining one with the Magpies' Stanley Aborah letting fly from distance and forcing a corner early on.

And following that set-piece, County's Haydn Hollis forced a superb save from Barry Roche before Aborah struck another effort just wide.
