THE Sky's the limit for Hereford United after their FA Cup second round clash with Hartlepool United was selected for live coverage by the satellite TV giants.
The clash will now be played on Sunday, November 21 (1.00) with United receiving a priceless £75,000 windfall from the television pool.
It will be the first time the Bulls have ever featured in a live televised match, and director of football Graham Turner said: "At this stage the money is most welcome.
"It will create a lot of interest and the supporters will be able to look forward to it - they haven't had many things to cheer about over the last few years."
But Turner warned that Hartlepool will be tough opponents after watching them beat Third Division leaders Barnet 3-0 last night.
"They could have had seven or eight and they looked very good and well-organised."
