    Assuming Phillips is only fit enough for the bench I’d go -

    Killip
    O’Keeffe De Gevigney Roberts Earl Gent
    Connell Russell
    DKD
    Humphreys Watters

    I prefer Cotter to O’Keeffe & Pines to De Gevigney but the first team has done well in the last few games so I don’t think players who’ve took 7 points from 9 deserve to be dropped.

    Got to get all the revenue we can. Another lucrative cup tie is what we should be aiming for. We have a big squad & the extra games shouldn’t be a hinderance.

    DKD then. Full strength all out to win it - nothing less will do

    I wouldn't play craig. And wouldn't drop Russell after been out best player for the last 3 games. Port Vale away won't be a easy game. No passengers needed.

    Full strength for me. FA Cup is important, and we need consistency.

    .....................Killip.....................
    .....Roberts...Pines......Earl.........
    Cotter................................Gent
    ........Russell..........Connell...........
    ...................Phillips..................
    ........ DKD...............Humphrys........

    Totally agree. Lose tomorrow and we've only got the League to play for.

    I wouldn't start Cosgrove in a month of Sundays.

    Humphrys & Watters up top, surely? You can't drop Russell either. Craig has looked poor to me.

    We'll see what we start with, I guess...

    It is the FA Cup. We've not had a game for a week. If we started with that line up I'd be severely worried. We need to get some consistency & some form together & win the game. Why drop the players who played well last Saturday for those who have underperformed? I do not get it.

    I had big hopes for Craig when he arrived but he just doesn’t fit into a midfield with Connell in it. Too similar so he’d be the one to miss out for me. Russell is good away so he plays
