    I would go over the tops Howarth/Wycoller/Colne/Barrowford. About a couple of minutes in it and 32 miles as opposed to 50.

    Yes obviously it depends on what side of Bradford you are leaving from

    My point is aimed at whoever wrote the article, written from the perspective of someone travelling northbound up the M6 o_O

    We haven't lost this season when I've been there so I'm fully expecting a comprehensive win tonight.

    Not feeling enthusiastic.

    When was the last time we won a match in this competition? 1980? Feels like years ago.

    Not bothered if we win or not. I would go with a complete second string side

    Can't agree with that at all. Cup runs can be great fun and a source of valuable revenue. And we need to address the poor performance from Saturday immediately. Saturday was hopefully a second string anyway - no d**king about, we need to get off and running. A loss tonight and again at the weekend and Hughes will be under early pressure.

    We haven't won a single game competitive or otherwise have we?

    Could do with actually winning and scoring, these things can start to drag on.

    McDonald on the bench, Stubbs back in the starting 11. Good news.

    Sticking with the formation, McDonald makes the bench.

    Accrington make 8 changes, all outfield.
