FA Cup Second Round Proper replay fixture date confirmed

Tuesday 16 Dec 2014
The two sides will meet again on 2 January

Milton Keynes Dons and Chesterfield will re-play their Second Round Proper tie on Friday 2 January at 7.45pm, it has been confirmed.

Following an FA Cup sub-committee hearing at Wembley Stadium, Chesterfield were ordered to replay their FA Cup Second Round Proper fixture against Milton Keynes Dons.

Chesterfield had admitted a breach of FA Cup Rule 15(j), after fielding an ineligible player, namely Georg Margreitter, in their 1-0 win at MK Dons on Saturday 6 December 2014.

The tie will be played to a finish, with no further replay. 

No further action was taken against Chesterfield as ordering the tie to be replayed was deemed sufficient punishment.

The winners will play Scunthorpe or Worcester City.
