The Silkmen’s FA Cup second-round replay has been chosen by ESPN for live coverage when Macc host the deciding clash against Chelmsford City.

Presumably with an eye on a cup upset, the channel selected the Macc clash, and Fleetwood’s replay with Yeovil Town, for screening.

Macc can expect a five-figure sum for the event, which will see the sides battle it out for the right to face Bolton in round three.

The Moss Rose will host the replay, with an 8.05pm kick-off on Wednesday, December 14, and details of ticket prices and availability has been announced on the club’s official website.

The prices are as follows - Seating: £12 (concessions £10, Under-18s). Terrace: £10 (concessions £6).

Students and Under-18s can gain entry for £3, Under-12s cost is just £1.

The game is not all-ticket but tickets do go on sale for the match today (Wednesday) and are available from the Moss Rose ticket offices, online or by calling 01625 264686.

Supporters can also get their ticket from the visitors’ centre at the town hall.

Season ticket holders will need to buy their ticket for the game, with their seats reserved until 2pm the day before the match.
