Soccer: The FAI have said today they await referee and delegate reports plus responses from both clubs within three days after last night's eircom League First Division fixture between Wexford Youths and Limerick 37 was postponed.

"We are deeply disappointed and dissatisfied that this match did not go ahead and we will be carrying out a full review and disciplinary process to take appropriate action. We will not be in a position to comment further until this case is heard," said Fran Gavin, Director of the eircom League of Ireland.

Confusion surrounding the game took place when the visiting side walked out before kick-off.

On arrival, Limerick were initially refused permission to use Wexford's main pitch for their warm-up and subsequently did not appear for the start of the game scheduled for 8pm.

The two sides had earlier presented their team sheets on time and referee Bob Rogers had deemed the pitch playable for the mid-table clash.  
    
Once all reports have been received the matter will then be put before the FAI Disciplinary Committee.
