A chance of a lifetime to watch Pompey play Cardiff from a luxury corporate box at Wembley has prompted a generous donation of four FA Cup final tickets.
Mick Williams is a season ticket holder and he and his family immediately snapped up tickets to the final worth £80 each.

The 49-year-old also bought four coach tickets for travel to and from Wembley.

But then a business contact offered him seats in a corporate box so he immediately decided to give his match tickets away, along with the coach tickets.

They will be raffled as two pairs at the Big Blue Picnic tomorrow with the winners being drawn at the end of the afternoon's entertainment.

Mick, who owns Williams and Company plumbing merchants in Fareham, said: 'For the semi-final I watched it with the crowds. This time I'll be with the prawn sandwich brigade so it will be a whole new experience.

'As I got the box seats for free I decided the best thing to do with the tickets I had bought was to give them away. The Tom Prince Cancer Trust is such a good local charity.

'The seats are in block 117 and last time I sat in block 118 so I know they're good seats.'

Raffle tickets will be available from the News trailer tomorrow.
