We can now confirm that this match will take place on Thursday 4 January at 8pm and will be broadcast live on Sky Sports.

The fixture had originally been provisionally scheduled for Sunday 31 December.

However, despite significant work by all stakeholders, the Safety Advisory Group could only recommend a maximum crowd of 43,000. This was due to transport issues, primarily at local tube stations whose resources were being deployed elsewhere across London on New Year’s Eve.

Following extensive discussions between all parties, a decision has been taken to move the fixture into the New Year so more supporters, home and away, can attend the game.

Ticket sale details for One Hotspur Members are below:

THURSDAY 7 DECEMBER, 12 NOON - One Hotspur Bronze members

FRIDAY 8 DECEMBER, 12 NOON – One Hotspur Bronze and Lilywhite members

Ticket details for non-members will be confirmed in due course.

Once again, we should like to apologise to supporters for the delay in confirming details for this fixture and for any inconvenience this may have caused.
