BACUP manager Brent Peters is to appeal to the FA to restore home advantage for their Marsden Trophy cup clash with Skelmersdale after last night's fifth postponement.

The game was called off 15 minutes before kick-off after the FA ruled that the game had to be switched, because of four cancellations at West View.

Peters said: "I'm incensed because, if that pitch was unfit, we will never play another game at home. The referee was influenced by Skelmersdale people."
