Next will hopefully be the quarter finals on a national basis, then semis, so 2 games to Wembley awaits the winners. Others still in include Portsmouth and U21 from ManC and Leicester.

Prize money is £40,000 for tonight’s winners. Nothing to be sniffed at, with £50,000 for the winners of the quarter final. I don’t have much time for this competition, but Vale could always use the money. 2-1 Vale then. UTV

I wouldn't be surprised if he takes a look at Atkinson at leftback tonight. Started his career as a left winger and relatively two footed. With Crookes out injured Monty is currently the player we can least afford to lose. Ideally I'd like to see Legge and Smith rested as they've both played a lot and are important players but one has to play. Hard to guess how he'll go but my guess:

Brown

Gibbons Brisley Smith Atkinson

Evans Conlon Taylor

Browne Cullen Bennett

Forgot about Evans... is he only right sided?

No but he looked uncomfortably right footed at leftback in the Walsall game. He may give him another go there. He's looked ok in midfield.

Not sure what formation we will play with that starting 11. Could be a 442 with Atkinson as a right winger maybe? Or a 433 with either Cullen or Bennett out wide?

Just purchased a pass to watch the match against Salford tonight, but not sure what I have to do to watch the game

Technology isn't exactly my strong point i.e I don't use a mobile phone, social media etc

So any idiot proof guide as how to watch the match on my computer will be gratefully received

Stronger XI than I expected, Pope, Worrall, Amoo and Taylor have the night off all together. It’s a side that still looks pretty strong in my opinion.

Can't argue with the changes made , personally I'd like to see Maddison to  of been used more in this competition as Brown is so important to us

Imagine Brown is in for penalties if need be now it’s a full on knock out.

Nothing much happened so far. Cullen had a decent chance where he went for an overhead kick instead of bringing it down. Don’t think he realises how much time he had.

All pretty cagey so far Tony.
