OXFORD United's FA Youth Cup tie with Barnsley this evening (Wednesday) has been postponed.
The referee deemed the parts of the surface at Thame United's ASM Stadium to be unplayable following an inspection.
The pitch was played on last night, when Thame United beat Reading Town 4-0 in the Bluefin Sports Insurance Supplementary Cup.
It is the third time the third round tie has been postponed.
Last month the original fixture was cancelled due to a frozen pitch, while a first rearrangement was scrapped due to a waterlogged surface.
No new date has been scheduled.
