Obviously it's Droylsden's fault for not being West Ham, then it would just be a fine:

Serves the fuckers right for playing silly buggers with their electrics to get the game called off twice!

Twice? I thought only one game was called off due to floodlight failure, the other being an abandonment due to fog after Droylsden were winning 1-0, and another due to a controversial 2-2 draw.

Of course we all know the FA are entirely consistent when it comes to punishments for Premiership/League/non-league teams.

Really couldn't care less Pace comes across as a cunt and hope he does throw himself off a bridge now as he said he would if Droylsden were thrown out.

If it was the other way round, Droylsden wouldn't be complaining.

Didn't Bury get fucked over by the FA for a similar crime in the cup a few seasons ago. Seems a precedent has been set, but it's unfortunate for the players and staff of Droylsden.

Yeah Bury were kicked out in 2006. Remarkably, they were also due to face Ipswich in the 3rd Round.
