Hardly Athletic finally got their second season off the mark last week when they defeated Pack Horse 6-4 and now hope to carry that form on in this weeks cup game. The season had gone from one debacle to the next for Athletic but the side saw the benefit of a somewhat settled side in recent weeks as a run of ten games without a win was ended with last weeks win. Hardly welcome back Paul Dale in goal, with Dan Buxton and Andy McEvoy also returning, with new signing Mark Mothershaw set to debut up front. Dropping out are the Gordon brothers and Dan Middleton, who has netted in both his appearances this season. The game kicks off at 7.45pm and the matchday squad is as follows: Paul Dale, Andy McEvoy, Matthew Peart, Matthew Young, Mark Mothershaw, Chris Cope, Dan Buxton,
