FC United of Manchester have rejected the offer of 500 tickets from Chorley for their Evo Stick Northern Premier fixture at the weekend.
In a statement, FC United of Manchester said, "We have regrettably refused to accept an allocation of tickets for the game. The league and Chorley FC have been informed of our decision."
The current stance comes after repeated chopping and changing of the fixture which will ultimately go ahead on September 10th at 12.30pm.
The original 3pm kick off was changed after concerns by Police, they also insisted that crowd segregation be in place for the match to take place.
A large crowd was expected for the match with estimates of 3,000+, Chorley manager Garry Flitcroft spoke of his disappointment at FC United's move.
"I feel sorry for my players. The players have worked hard this season to be top of the league and they deserve to play in front of big crowds, but there's nothing we can do now, we will just have to get on with it."
