Yeovil reveal burning passion for Cup clash

Last updated : 10 December 2003 By Chris Maxwell
The prestige clash, which pits one of English football's most notorious giant- killers against the nations most successful club side, was thought to be in grave danger when news broke of a fire at Huish Park this morning.

While the fire destroyed Yeovil's stadium manager's office, the club managed to salvage crucial computer equipment to be used to sell tickets for the eagerly anticipated David V Goliath match in January.

A spokesman said: "We are running about seven or eight hours behind schedule but tickets for the Liverpool game are on sale tomorrow morning and we are confident to be up and running for then.

"Obviously it is a major blow but there is no danger of the Liverpool game not going ahead nor the Scunthorpe game a week on Saturday."
