Nuneaton Borough’s upcoming FA Trophy fixture against AFC Fylde will be held at the Coventry Building Society Arena.
The match will kick-off at 3pm on Saturday 9th December at the home of Coventry City.
As Boro face on-going issues regarding access to play home games at Liberty Way, Boro approached the Sky Blues regarding playing the fixture at the Arena and the two clubs have reached an agreement with Coventry Building Society Arena, who will host the fixture free of charge.
Supporters will be housed in the West Stand at the Arena, with admission via turnstiles 44/45. Ticket prices for the game are Adult £15, Concessions £10, Under 17 £5.
