One of our ‘bogey’ teams.
They’ve won their previous five R1 FA Cup ties – we’ve lost our previous four.
Bookies have 1-1 as the shortest scorecast.
Their place ain’t a particularly happy hunting ground for us.
They appointed Ian Evatt on Monday 20th October and they enjoyed the new manager bounce last week with a 2-1 win at bottom club Peterborough.
They sit 2nd bottom of the league and needed to win last weekend to leapfrog their hosts and demote them to 24th & last place.
If we’ve got our strongest team available, then we could make things difficult for them… particularly if they view the game as a distraction and would prefer to try and survive relegation?
However, you’d think that a new manager in situ would want to prove himself?
Difficult one to call.
Heart 0-1 Iron
Gut 2-1 Blackpool
Head 1-1 … who knows with pens?
