Liam Daish wants to move on after Ebbsfleet United endured a wasted overnight trip to York last week.

The Stonebridge Road boss was critical of the late decision to call off Saturday’s FA Trophy tie, after a third pitch inspection at lunchtime.

A snow-covered Bootham Crescent on Monday ruled out any prospect of the game going ahead later this week, so Fleet will now head north again on Tuesday.

The winners will face either Blue Square Bet Premier strugglers Bath City or in-form Grimsby Town in the quarter-finals later this month.

The first inspection on Friday lunchtime was made by a local referee, with the two others on Saturday by the match official, the first at 9.30am, with the final decision coming three hours later.

Daish said: "We delayed leaving because of the first inspection and I thought it was a poor decision (not to call the game off on Friday).

"I said my piece at the time and don’t really want to dwell on it. I have got a decent relationship with the York chairman and their manager (Gary Mills)."

Cash-strapped Fleet are unlikely to make much profit on the tie, after spending nearly £4,000 on coach and hotel expenses on the two trips. They will be able to claim the first back, having been told to travel, but expectations are the attendance will be lower on Tuesday.
