NEWPORT County AFC fans who buy tickets for Saturday’s League Two home match against MK Dons will be given priority for January’s FA Cup third-round tie against Leicester City at Rodney Parade.
County beat Wrexham 4-0 in last night’s second-round replay to set up the showdown with the Foxes on Sunday, January 6 (kick-off 4.30pm).
The match against the former Premier League champions will be broadcast live on BBC One but demand for tickets is expected to be high.
Season ticket holders, Trust members and shareholders will be first in the queue for tickets.
But supporters who buy tickets for this weekend’s meeting with League Two leaders MK Dons will also be able to buy tickets for the Leicester tie before they go on general sale.
Brilliant night for the club and a fantastic fixture to look forward too https://t.co/RCkPSmAu1z
