GLOVERS AND GRECIANS FORCED TO WAIT AGAIN

Yeovil Town and Exeter City will have to wait to do it all again after their respective Tuesday night FA Cup and Johnstone's Paint Trophy clashes after both meetings fell victim to the weather.

The Glovers are still waiting to play their FA Cup second round tie against Hartlepool, which was called off because of snow on Saturday 27th November because of snow. When the two sides eventually play each other, the reward for the winner will be a trip to Championship side Watford in Round Three.

For the second time in the space of a week, a frozen pitch at the Memorial Stadium has prevented Exeter City from taking in their Johnstone's Paint Trophy Southern Area Semi-Final against Bristol Rovers.

The Grecians, who have beaten Yeovil, Hereford United and Plymouth Argyle in this season's competition, will equal their best ever run in the tournament should they overcome the Pirates when the two sides finally play each other.
