Plymouth Argyle's new striker Emile Mpenza will probably have to wait until Saturday's Championship match with Norwich City for his first game.

The 30-year-old Belgian, who is lacking match fitness, was due to start in the reserve team's game at Cheltenham Town on Tuesday afternoon.

But the game has been called off after Whaddon Road was waterlogged.

Argyle had also pencilled in deadline-day loan signing Nicolas Marin to make his first appearance on Tuesday.
