Leyton Orient's League One fixture at Mansfield Town this Saturday has been postponed due to international call-ups. The match at the One Call Stadium, scheduled for 26 September, will be rearranged after three of Nigel Clough's players were selected for their national teams.
Lucas Akins, Nathan Moriah-Welsh and Jon Russell have been called up by Grenada, Guyana and Jamaica respectively. League rules allow for a postponement when a club has three or more players called away on international duty. Tickets purchased for the original date will remain valid for the rescheduled game.
Current context
Richie Wellens's side currently sit 10th in the League One table with ten points from their opening seven matches. Their most recent outing was a 1-0 home win over Stevenage, with Alexander George Henry Gilbert scoring the decisive goal.
The postponement creates a gap in the schedule for Orient, whose next scheduled fixture is now the away trip to Mansfield Town at a date to be confirmed. The clubs have stated they will announce the new date as soon as possible. Fans can keep track of all future dates on the club's official fixtures page.
