Was he ineligible for just the FA Cup or League games too? If he’s played in league games it could result in points being deducted.

He was a Barnsley player on loan to a non-league side when the original tie was played, then recalled to play in the replay. FA Cup rules say as he wasn't available for the first game, he shouldn't have played in the replay.

That’s really shoddy from Barnsley, I’m sure heads will roll, as they had a great chance of making the 3rd round
