NON-League matches featuring East Thurrock United, Aveley, Tilbury and Grays Athletic have been called off because of coronavirus.

The Isthmian League board has decided that as an immediate step matches scheduled for tomorrow and next midweek will be postponed and we will review the situation daily as to when fixtures can recommence.

A statement from league chairman Nick Robinson says: "We understand the enormous financial impact this will have on many Clubs, but the Board feels that it is better to err on the side of caution at this time.

"We hope that by taking this step we can delay the spread of the virus and we earnestly hope that with the right approach there will be as few persons as possible suffering either directly or indirectly.

"We look forward to the resumption of the fixtures as soon as possible."
