Much as I love the Trophy and would enjoy a run I really think some players need a rest. So I would rest Harrison, Hulme and Johnson.

Still think we can advance.

Alty 2-0. Attn 543

[MarpleAlty]

I would rest Hancock as well and go with Peers and Harrop up top, Miller and Walsh on the wings (similar to the Ashton game).

Still a prestige competition for me, and the prize fund is decent too. I think we could go far this season so I'd go for a full strength team on Saturday. If we are really interested in progressing then we shouldn't take chances.

Alty 4/11
Draw 7/2
Clitheroe 11/2

[Ballers]

As I mentioned last week, not sure the team can cope with setbacks, so keep the momentum going.

[Alty Bri]

Definitely agree with MarpleAlty on this one - same team that sneaked past Ashton should be enough.

Exactly.

A prize of £3,250 for overcoming Clitheroe on home territory constitutes a rather good reward in my book (and it's surely imperative that we secure this money after the financial ramifications of the FA Cup calamity at Shildon).

We don't have a midweek game coming up so I'd argue there's less of a reason to rest players against Clitheroe. Parkinson likes the Trophy and I don't think we'll see wholesale changes, just the essential ones. Get through this game without a hiccup and have a lighter training session on Tuesday night.

Any competition that can lead to playing at Wembley and earning a few quid along the way deserves our full respect.

Anyone know entrance prices for today? Might be just me missing it but I can't find them on the website. Thanks

[Old Alt]

There form doesn't look great, they have lost their last three matches away from home and lost five of the last eight overall. Given our recent form, we have a great chance to progress. Wembly here we come.

I'm assuming that normal League prices apply, given that there has been no statement about pricing level for this game specifically. As it's a cup match, of course, it's 'all pay' on the gate.

[distancetraveller]

I would go full strength and earn the club some much needed cash.

5-0 Alty
ATT 666

[RON MANAGER]

unable to put a bet on Alty FC winning by 3-0 today...Bet365 waste of space!

[robininstockport]

If we'd had made 8 changes this first half might be understandable
