Big night for youth team

Martin Reilly - unavailable tonight
The game kicks off at 7:00 p.m. at Grange Lane, home of North Ferriby United, as the Clarets look to get back to winning ways after the 100% record came to an end with a draw and a defeat in the last couple of weeks.

It will be a different line up to the one that usually plays in the Alliance League with Martin Reilly missing because of his age and Marc Pugh, back from Kidderminster and Chris McCann similarly ruled out. All three were 18 before the cut off date at the beginning of September.

We have no team news but it is expected that some of the Centre of Excellence lads will be included in the side, and it couldn’t be much tougher. We’ve dropped from the top of the league to third, and are currently eight points behind leaders Oldham, although we do have three games in hand.

Tonight’s opponents Hull lead the East Conference by five points, having won ten and lost just on of their fourteen games to date. Should we get through, then it will give us a home tie in the next round against Fulham.
