Barnsley have been kicked out of the FA Cup for fielding an ineligible player in their first-round replay win at non-league Horsham.
The seventh-tier side will now play League Two Sutton United in round two.

The League One Tykes had won the replay 3-0 last week after drawing 3-3 in the initial tie at Oakwell.
“We would like to apologise to our fans, players and staff for this regrettable error,” they said in a statement on the club website.
Although Barnsley have not named the player, Football Association rules state only players who are eligible for the initial FA Cup tie can feature in a replay.
