Recently, English League Two club AFC Wimbledon announced that due to severe damage to the turf at their home ground caused by flooding, the stadium will need to be closed for at least 19 days for repairs.
Photos from the scene show that the turf near the corner flag of AFC Wimbledon’s home ground has been completely destroyed, making it unsuitable for matches. The club also revealed that the fan passage behind the stand is still submerged in water.
Due to this, AFC Wimbledon has had to close its home ground for repair work, with an expected closure of at least 19 days.
Looking at the schedule, this means that in addition to the League Cup match against Newcastle United being unable to proceed as scheduled, two league matches at AFC Wimbledon’s home ground against Accrington Stanley and Carlisle United will also have to be rescheduled.
