Heavy Rainfall makes for soggy Hamburgers

The derby is postponed due to adverse weather conditions.  Kult and Punk were confined to Zoe's Bar, where they beat Karl Heinz & Wally Schultz at darts, for a jug of Dockers Lip- a very special brew.

Sunday's Bundesliga clash between Hamburger SV and FC St. Pauli has been called off.

Extreme rainfall in Hamburg over the past two days has rendered the pitch at the Imtech Arena unplayable.

Date to be set next week

All weather forecasts pointed to further rainfall in Hamburg and its surrounding areas for the next few days.

The DFL (German Football League) Stadium Committee inspected the pitch today and decided the fixture could not go ahead.

The derby will be rescheduled by the DFL at the beginning of next week.
