Sat 6th Feb 2010 Squads & Review - A Team KO change

The 1st Team are back in action this week after a blank weekend last week. The Don travel to AFC Wallingford in the 2nd Round of the North Berks Cup, which was originally postponed earlier in the season. Town are still to lose a tie in all competitions this season and will be looking to extend this run to 20 matches, but it will not be an easy task with the hosts winning in league action last week. Town welcome back Chris Benson and Dan Courtney to the squad but are missing Paul Hulme (knee), Steve Aley (unavailable) and new signing Greg Higgs (cup-tied). The winners will face a trip to Didcot Casuals in the next round.

1st Team v AFC Wallingford - AWAY 1.45pm KO - North Berks Cup 2nd Rd - Meet 11.45am Travis Perkins

Squad From: C Benson, D Courtney, D Curtis, R Evans, M Francis, D Harrington, J Lovegrove, M Pill, A Sly, P Soane, G Sutton, C Webb, S Wright

The Reserves are also in cup action when Saxton Rovers Reserves come to Tucker Park in the 2nd Round of the Nairne Paul Trophy. The visitors are from a league higher and will be favourites to progress, but Town are on a decent run of form and will be hoping to have a decent cup run. Rovers have won four of their twelve league fixtures, so far. The winner will have to travel to Division 4 side East Hendred Reserves in the Quarter Finals. Tom Wells, Chris Kershaw, James Tyler and Mike Marsh are all available this week after missing last weeks fixture.

Squad: M Kelly, G Townsend, S Pugh, L Ruddle, T Wells, R Edwards, B Spencer, M Hickson, B Ferris, M Hathaway, J Tyler, M Marsh, C Kershaw

The A's will be looking to gain an advantage over one of their promotion challengers when they face local rivals Coleshill Utd Reserves. Utd are four points behind the A's but with three games in hand, so a win is vital for the men in Yellow. Squad captain Ben Henley (unavailable) & top scorer Matty Curtis (hamstring) are missing but cup-tied Greg Higgs gains valuable match fitness after his recent arrival to the club and Liam Humphreys continues his rehabilitation after his summer knee operation. The fixture will see Town have six ex Utd players in their ranks.

Squad: R Curtis, T Sears, M Bugden, J Berry, C Whittle, G Higgs, N Wojcik, C Ayres, D Pugh, I Stevens, S Wilson, L Humphreys, S Curran, T Redman
