Lewes FC have started selling tickets for their Women’s FA Cup quarter-final clash at home to Manchester United – and have revealed the date and kick-off time and how people can watch it on the BBC.

The match will kick off at 12.30pm on Sunday, March 19 and will be screened live on the BBC iplayer, via the red button, and on the FA player via the FA website.

It’s a shame it’s not lined up for BBC1 or BBC2 coverage with Lewes Women having long campaigned for equality in football for the women’s game. But its selection for the BBC red button is still great exposure for the Rooks.
