Non-league side Marine will FURLOUGH their players on Monday if they fail to beat Jose Mourinho's Tottenham in mouth-watering FA Cup clash this weekend after their eighth-tier division was suspended

Non-league side Marine will furlough their players if they do not end up beating Tottenham Hotspur in their mouth-watering FA Cup third round tie on Sunday.

The eighth-tier club will face Jose Mourinho's Premier League outfit at home this weekend - though the game will be played behind closed doors due to the latest coronavirus lockdown.

Despite their success in the cup, Marine have played just seven times in the league this season as their Northern Premier League Division One North West division does not fall under the 'elite sport' category that is allowed to continue.
