Sian Massey will have to wait before she takes charge of a game again.
Massey, 25, who has not refereed since she was the victim of derogatory remarks made by Andy Gray and Richard Keyes before the Wolves v Liverpool clash, was due to take charge of Banbury United’s match with Chippenham on Saturday.
Instead, Andy Tonks will now take charge at Spencer Stadium, while Massey runs the line at this weekend’s Torquay v Southend clash in League Two.
Massey ran the line in the Chesterfield v Aldershot game in League Two and the Blackpool v Aston Villa tie in the Premier League, but Banbury was to have seen her return to the middle.
Banbury secretary Barry Worsley said: “Up until Tuesday she was refereeing our game, but I received an e-mail from the FA saying she had been switched to the Torquay game.
“It’s a bit of a shame really because we were hoping it would put a few on the gate.
“She refereed the same game here last year and did well.”
