Guernsey replay postponed over registration error
Guernsey FC played their first FA Cup tie in eight years on Saturday
- Published
Guernsey FC’s FA Cup replay with Bedfont Sports has been postponed after concerns the island side may have fielded an unregistered player.
The Green Lions drew 1-1 with the Londoners at Victoria Park on Saturday in the extra preliminary round tie.
Ross Allen equalised for the hosts to force a replay which was due to take place on Tuesday evening in the capital.
But Guernsey FC say they subsequently found a registration error with one of the side that played in the club's first FA Cup match in eight years.
The island side say the game has been postponed for a week pending any appeal.
The winners of the tie will progress to the preliminary round of the competition where they will host Kingstonian - who beat Guernsey 3-0 in April in an Isthmian League match - on 16 August.
Guernsey FC's next game will be their first ever match in the Southern Combination Premier Division when they host Wick at Victoria Park on Saturday.
