With Kipax at Ewood on Saturday and then off to Anfield for Liverpool V Oldham on Sunday.

All subject to change but at the moment I'm at: Friday: Wrexham v Luton Saturday: Burnley v Blackburn, then Preston v Stevenage

Rotherham v Sheffield Utd for me.

Thanks Little John. Covered Heaton CC v Bradshaw CC at Church Road on Weds and used a 1.4 TC on full frame 300mm. Was going to use a 1.6 crop body for the extra reach but it was quite gloomy and decided to use the full frame body for the better iso performance and had to crop a bit more than I...

Off to Wembley on Sunday for the League One Play Off Final.

Everton v West Ham on Sunday. Can't imagine that there will be a lot of media interest .....:|

I'm from bury and both us & Hartlepool are down anyway. I'll be covering Burnley v Bristol City tomorrow.
