If Saturday's FA Trophy tie at York were to end in a draw, when would the replay take place?

Unsure which governing body or person made or agreed to postpone the fixture but whoever it was has common sense. Finally, common sense prevails! SBL

In the rules of the Trophy & as long as the two clubs are in agreement and the FA have been officially notified in advance, the two clubs can agree with each other to play to a finish (including ET & pens if needed) on the original tie & thus do away with the need for a replay. Strongly suspect that is what we have agreed with York in this case.

I have been half expecting that too, as it's in both clubs'
interests. Other ties have already been announced as being played to a finish, however. Colne v Southport is definitely one, and there was another which I can't recall.
It's still possible, but I think it needs to be announced sooner rather than later (no idea if there is a deadline) if it is going to happen.
