Non-league stars go SWIMMING on their pitch as entire stadium covered in water as Storm Bert wreaks havoc
NON-LEAGUE stars enjoyed a spot of swimming after their entire stadium pitch was left covered in water by Storm Bert.
The amazing moment came as the UK was hit by a plethora of wet and windy weather.
Games were called off across the country due to the stormy conditions.
And non-league side Lydney Town saw yesterday’s home fixture against Roman Glass St George among the matches that were called off.
However, some players rocked up on Sunday to check out the extent of the damage.
And they could not believe their eyes when they saw that the pitch had been completely submerged in water.
Hilariously, the Lydney players decided to take advantage of the situation.
A football was booted into the middle of the flooded field.
And several dived into the water before swimming around in joy
Fans certainly found the moment amusing.
