Lincoln City's Conference Premier clash at Eastleigh, scheduled for Saturday afternoon, has been postponed following an explosion in the hotel sauna where the visiting team were staying.
The fire at the Hilton Southampton meant that the Imps were unable to collect their team kit, with the game being postponed after an hour's delay.
A club statement from Eastleigh read: "The fire broke out at the Hilton Hotel in Chilworth at 11.16am. Crews of 55 firefighters from eight stations across the Southampton area have been tackling the flames which are thought to have started in the hotel's sauna."
Can only apologise to fans who have travelled but all in hands of fire brigade. All players boots, etc in rooms which we can't enter
