Tickets for Gillingham’s FA Cup match against West Ham United are now on general sale.

The Gills announced on Thursday morning that supporters can now buy two tickets each for the game.

A statement from Gills said: "We are pleased to announce, after reviewing a number of comments from supporters, that the club has decided that once West Ham tickets go on general sale (to those on our database only), supporters can purchase two tickets per customer number, rather than one."

Tickets for the third round fixture - which is to be broadcast live on BT Sport - went on sale last Tuesday and they’ve been selling well, with just a couple of thousand tickets expected to be left once they go on general sale.

West Ham are expected to sell out their ticket allocation after being given exclusive use of the Brian Moore Stand.

The Premier League side have been allocated 2,594 tickets for the match at Priestfield, which takes place on Sunday, January 5. They have been on sale to Hammers fans since Friday.
