YORK City are facing a hectic fixture schedule after being caught in winter’s icy grip, but manager Martin Foyle is taking the disruption in his stride.

The Minstermen are due to travel to Oxford United tomorrow (7.45pm) in the FA Trophy second round after the tie was postponed from Saturday due to a frozen pitch.

That has knocked their Setanta Shield fourth round trip to Barrow back a week to Tuesday, January 20.

If City beat Barrow, they will host Southport in the northern semi-finals of the competition in another midweek fixture.

The club also have to rearrange their Blue Square Premier visit to Weymouth, which was postponed due to frost last Tuesday.

Despite the potential for a lengthy run of midweek games, City boss Foyle said: “It will be all right as long as we aren’t travelling long distances to away games.

“After Oxford, we’ve got Barrow away the following week so that’s not too bad.”
