Farnborough face dilemma over glamour tie with Gunners

FA CUP giant-killers Farnborough were last night wrestling with the dilemma of whether to attempt to host their fourth round tie against Arsenal after being handed the added incentive of a £265,000 live TV payment.

The Conference club were discussing with Hampshire police, as well as Arsenal and the Football Association, whether to hold the game at their 4,100 capacity ground or move it to Highbury.

If they are at home, the game will be shown live at 12.30pm on Saturday January 25 on Sky Sports, who will also show another match on Sunday, with Crystal Palace taking on Liverpool at 1pm.
