    Yeah, I'd expect a relatively strong side simply by virtue of the fact that we'll have a deeper team, and thus a few more players needing game action, but I wouldn't expect to see our best out there.

    Er... why is Peter Drury commentating for the BBC when he works for ITV?

    Straight swap - Peter Drury for Lee Dixon.

    Love a bit of Drury. Classic voice.

    Oh right. Didn't think he would be working for both at the same time!

    Should be a good return for Dave Jones.Always rated him as a manager.

    Better than it could have been. Hopefully we put out a strong side. I'm worried that a weakened side will struggle against a Wednesday team who have looked pretty good in the championship.

    Even our second string should have enough. With all our new signings this will be a chance for players like Sharp to stake a claim.

    On paper our second string is good enough, but these cobbled together sides usually struggle, especially if Wednesday play their strong side (not certain they will, remember). I think Adkins will play a stronger side for this round as it is at SMS.

    May also want to give some first teamers a run out as we have the International break coming up.

    Should get a decent reception. Liked him a lot and although from what I've seen of him playing for Wednesday he still looks a bit raw I have a feeling that one day he'll develop into an excellent player.
