Parkinson replaces Payton

Parkinson, scorer of our winning goal at Wembley in the play off final of 1994, comes in for Andy Payton in what is the only change to the nine named originally. He'll be alongside Chris Pearce, Ian Cox, Andy Farrell, Ashley Hoskin, Liam Robinson, Roger Eli, John Francis and Andy Cooke.

The event is this coming Saturday at the MEN Arena in Manchester where we will be up against Blackburn, Bolton, Oldham and the two Manchester clubs.

The first game kicks off at 8:00 p.m.
