HEREFORD United will receive another windfall of almost £20,000 after their FA Cup third round clash with Leicester City on December 11 was selected for television coverage by the BBC.
United will pick up £18,750 for allowing Match of the Day cameras to show highlights of the clash. They received £75,000 after their second round clash with Hartlepool United was shown live by Sky Television.
A lucky omen for the Bulls is that John Motson will commentate on the match. His first major game for the BBC was their legendary victory over Newcastle in 1972.
