But Bradford had already tweeted at 10:15am that the game was on.
But the official then looked at the pitch and was joined by both sides’ managers.
And they came to a decision that the surface was unplayable and decided to postpone the game.
Fans were left fuming after the news was announced just an hour and 15 minutes before kick-off at 3pm.
Thousands of fans had already begun their journeys to Valley Parade.
Angry supporters wrote online: “You’re a disgrace, we’ve paid good money to stay down here, I’m not going to get that money back.”
Another added: “That pitch is not fit for Sunday League.”
A third said: “I’ve followed this all morning. It was obvious hours ago. What’s the idea of all the ‘it’s on’ tweets throughout the morning.”
More reacted: “Thanks for letting us know an hour before kick off. Utterly embarrassing.”
