The FA Cup first qualifying round replay between Jersey Bulls and Burgess Hill Town has been postponed. The match was originally scheduled for Tuesday night at Leylands Park but was moved to 15 September because of air traffic control issues in the UK. Jersey Bulls could not secure air travel to the mainland for the fixture. The two clubs previously played to a 0-0 draw on Saturday. FA Cup rules require Channel Island teams to conduct all replays at the opponent's venue. Because of this schedule change, Jersey Bulls must also rearrange an Isthmian League South Central match against Hartley Wintney that was originally set for 15 September. The winners of the rescheduled cup tie will advance to play Hanwell Town in the second qualifying round on 19 September.
