TONIGHT'S teams have just been confirmed: WALSALL: Oakes, Pead, Fox, Gerrard, Roper, Osborn, Timm, Wright, Leary, Demontagnac, James. Sub: Westwood, Standing, Kinsella, Larrosa, Gilmartin. BARNSLEY: Colgan, Hassell, Reid, Carbon, Hayes, Howard, Austin, Shuker, Kell, Devaney, Wright. Subs: Flinders, Burns, McPhail, Richards, Nardiello
I didn't hear it but... Apparently Ritchie said Nardiello was to start on Radio Sheff on Saturday, but then in his pre-match comments, he said that due to his FA Cup Record, he had to start Hayes, and that he wanted to play Wright because he thought he and Hayes did well together at Vale Park when Hayes was introduced, and that they had edged Danny out.
