Our FA Trophy third round tie against Farsley Celtic has been postponed.

The match officials opted for an inspection after the away team’s arrival, with the pitch in a playable condition earlier in the day, though the decision has ultimately been taken to postpone the game due to heavy rain affecting the pitch throughout the remainder of the day.

The club appreciates the efforts of today’s match officials in doing their utmost to allow the game to be played as planned, to the desire of both clubs.

The fixture will now be played on Tuesday, December 10 (7:45pm kick off) at Gateshead International Stadium.

All previously purchased tickets are valid for the re-arranged date. Supporters wishing to claim a refund should follow the instructions received via the email used at purchase.
