The club can confirm that there will be a live streaming of Saturday's FA Cup Fourth Qualifying Round game against Bury Town - Details below

Despite our best efforts to turn around a free to air Livestream, it proved, with the complications around overseas FA Cup broadcasting rights, something that we have been unable to achieve in the short time available.

The only alternative is to use a streaming platform that incurs a cost per viewer! This means if it went viral for whatever reason (as things can do on the internet!) and one million viewers watched this FA Cup classic between Banbury United and Bury Town, the club would be liable for over £500,000!

As a result, we need to cover as a bare minimum the potential cost for each user watching the stream! The cost to watch will though be just £1.50 and we are delighted that, for this small fee, supporters of both teams unable to get tickets for the game or indeed anyone who would like to watch the two teams battle it out for a place in the First Round of the FA Cup, at which stage the League 1 and League 2 clubs come into the competition, are able to do so.

The club are very grateful to Banbury Plant & Skip Hire for their sponsorship of the stream which has enabled us to provide a professional streaming service.

Due to FA broadcasting rights, the stream is only available to UK viewers so sadly our overseas fans will be unable to watch.

A special thanks and huge acknowledgement has to go to Oxford City! Without their support and generosity, Banbury United supporters would not have been able to have access to the game via a professional stream!

The club is also working on making its highly regarded matchday programme available to those watching the stream.
