Luigi Cennamo - in goal for big reserve game
A number of players are using the game to boost their fitness for the big game on Sunday and this means the likes of Steve Davis, Glen Little, Tony Grant and Gareth Taylor will play.

The entire side have played first team football this season with the least experienced being goalkeeper Luigi Cennamo who has made just the one first team appearance as a sub in the FA Cup at Cheltenham.

Some of the youngsters who have done us proud all season will occupy the five subs places and it is fitting that they will be there tonight if we can lift the trophy.

The full team is Luigi Cennamo, Mark McGregor, Graham Branch, Gordon Armstrong, Steve Davis, Lenny Johnrose, Glen Little, Tony Grant, Gareth Taylor, Robbie Blake, Brad Maylett. Subs: Mark Rasmussen, James Salisbury, Earl Davis, Matthew O‘Neill, Andrew Waine.

One omission from the youth team is Joel Pilkington who we assume is injured having not featured in recent reserve and youth games. From the first team squad there is surprisingly no run out for Paul Cook who hasn't been on the first team bench for the last two games.

There is no news of the Preston team yet and we have to wait to see whether they will have a similarly strong side out tonight.

Best of luck tonight and a win will be great reward for all those who have served Ronnie Jepson and the reserves so well this season.
