Possibly Hall? Definitely Jason Lee and Elliot Sandy, as the latter got them in to the final! Jepson as well, but he seems to have gone from the squad.

Bowen, Leslie and Kennedy are 3 others I would have thought.

In fact, given we're only allowed to include players that have played in a previous round, are we going to be able to field a side?

I imagine we'll go with a starting XI similar to the one against Brackley?

I just checked back and Andy Hall played against Brackley, only positions I'm unsure of who will fill them is LB & RB LB against Brackley was Hipwell. RB was Delroy Gordon.

Delroy is away from the club, maybe he'll be recalled?

Does leave Peaksy with a selection dilemma.

----------------------------------------------------

The starting XI against Brackley was

Finlay, Gordon, Hipwell, Ashton, Dolman, Harris, Richards, Quigley, Stephenson, Lorraine, Hall

Subs: Vitue, Pinder, Butt, Hoban, Ackroyd

Does anyone know please which car parks at or near Sixfields will be open?

Thanks!

I understand that there will be free car parking in all car parks at the ground.

I see from the twitter feed that we're in the north stand. Think that's opposite the away end we've been in before

Can't say I'm looking forward to this game at all. Can see them the rubbing salt into our wounds even further!

Can't make this sadly as I'm on election duty tomorrow, I'd love to win this just because it's them !! I fear the worse like dowlo, but hopefully the lads that are eligible and fit will be able to do a job for us!!

Couple of score predictions on Ploppies Forum of them to win 4-0 or 5-0. !!

When was the last time we played K*ttering?

They won't be too far wrong if we're honest. They are putting out their strongest side possible. The majority of our players are cup-tied so we are putting out a thread bare side, with those who would make our "strongest 11" having already played 120 minutes in a Play-off final just 3 days ago. Who, lets be honest wouldn't mind if the season was over now.

I'm fully aware that is a massively negative post but I can only see one winner tonight sadly.

That's not to say we shouldn't get behind the players that take to the pitch tonight, because they deserve our support for the great season they have had.
