Ammies hit TV jackpot, again!

The Football Association has confirmed that EVO-STIK Northern Premier League Salford City's FA Cup second round replay at Hartlepool United will be broadcast live on BT Sport.

The Ammies head to the League Two club's Victoria Park next Tuesday night (Dec 15) hoping to take their place in the third round after drawing 1-1 at Moor Lane on Friday night.

The Premier Division club has already hit the TV jackpot twice on their cup run. After earning a £67,500 live broadcast fee from the BBC for their televised 2-0 win over Notts County in the first round proper - watched by a peak audience of 3.5 million - the Ammies scooped an additional £72,000 live fee after the BBC chose to return to Moor Lane in the second round.

As well as banking a £36,000 TV fee for the replay, they'll also add a further £27,500 in prize money to their cup cash tally if joint managers Anthony Johnson and Bernard Morley can mastermind another win and they go on to host Championship Derby County in January.
