Chasetown to host FA Cup tie

Last updated : 20 December 2007 By Michael Morris
The David v Goliath clash has been set up after the clubs and relevant authorities came to an agreement that the game could go ahead at Chasetown's 2,000 capacity home.

The game will be played on Saturday January 5th, 2008. Kick off at 1:00pm.

Exact ticket allocations and distribution for Cardiff City fans have not yet been finalised. Cardiff could be allocated between 300 and 600 tickets.

Port Vale were given 450 tickets in the last round as Chasetown errected temporary terraces. Fantastic. True FA Cup spirit, not even temporary stands.

Chasetown are the equivilent of Division 8. The British Gas Business Southern League Midlands Division outfit are the lowest level club to ever make the third round of the FA Cup.
