The tie was set to take place at Abbey Lawn in Bourne on Sunday (December 11) at 1pm but has now been postponed due to a frozen pitch.

The pitch inspection took place at midday.

The postponement means that Posh look set to be in the fourth round draw; which is the round Women’s Super League clubs enter the competition.

Posh have made the third round for the first time ever this season.

A new date for the match has yet to be announced.
