Market Drayton Tigers were drawing 4-4 in extra-time against Oakengates Athletic on Wednesday night when midfielder Joshua McIntosh was injured, forcing the referee to bring play to an end.

His dad Andy McIntosh, also the Tigers boss, feared Joshua had broken his leg but now says he ‘may be back in action within a few weeks’. It is now up to the two clubs to find a date to replay the fixture.
