You will need to collect your programme in person via the Club Superstore (Saturday 8th January, 10am-4pm & Friday 14th January, 10am-4pm) but please note that the Superstore will not be open on matchday itself.

There are no replays. This game will be settled on the day. The 4th round draw takes places later on Sunday.

At least they can't blame fan apathy for a low turnout.

Think he's just coming back from injury so he might make the bench at best.

He’s cup-tied (as well as injured)
He played and scored for MK dons in the first round.

Re: CARDIFF CITY v PRESTON NORTH END. Match thread
I wonder if we'll see some as yet unseen youngsters on the bench? We'll have a 20 man squad and be able to make 5 subs

Yes I think it is, surely he's got to use them in a game like this? I would have liked to have seen Wintle starting.

Re: CARDIFF CITY v PRESTON NORTH END. Match thread

Re: CARDIFF CITY v PRESTON NORTH END. Match thread
The players don't seem to know where thry're meamt to be playing. The 5 at the back and 2 sitting midfielders mean there's barely anyone forward, it's often just Davies and Colwill against Preston's back 5, I've no idea where Collins is
